I've been meaning to post this for a while. Thanks for the reminder.

Old brewery became massive pot farm
The mammoth scale of two Toronto-area marijuana grow-operations busted on the weekend shows that “commercial marijuana factories have reached epidemic proportions in Ontario,” police said Monday.

BTW  "...just a [red]STONES[/red] throw from the [red]HIGH[/red]way?"  Reporter has a sense of humor.

I would bet the marijuana that was grown was for medicinal purposes. I will not begrudge a person who is dying from a disease a small amount of relief that marijuana may provide them -- I am not heartless like Uncle Sam.

If someone wants to smoke dope that's their business.  However they could have been using that place to make beer and there is something wrong about that.[:D]

Nowhere in the article does it say that he was doing it for altruistic reasons. He was however, taking advantage of a church as a place of sanctuary by using it for an ILLEGAL drug manufacturing facility. That truth, whether we think drugs should be legalized or not, can not be evaded.

Don't do the crime, if you can't pay the time, Father Arko.

Man- he gonna have fun in da Big House....
