RCMP seize 173 pot plants from gutted Lakelse Lake hom

A LOCAL couple has been charged with possession of marijuana for the purposes of trafficking after RCMP raided their Lakelse Lake home and seized 173 ma- ture plants.

RCMP Cnst. Trent Johnson said damage to the Kroyer Street house in- cluded destroyed carpets, holes punched into. the wall to run ventilation pipes, lights and electrical power through the house,

He advised landlords to pay attention te abnormal- ly high electricity bills, constantly covered up win- dows, bags of soil or plant material outside the house and of course, the smell of marijuana.

The house, where the two accused also lived, was a fire hazard, said Johnson.

The accused are sche- duled to appear in court here May 25.

JUST A SAMPLE: This marijuana plant was just

one of many seized after RCMP raided a home at Lakelse Lake last week. Two people face drug

charges in court here as

a result.

It also contained a pro- mise to “introduce targe- ted business tax cuts to encourage job creation.”

The government, through Gardom, also said it will bring in “transparency in budgeting “It is critical that Brit- ish Columbians have the highest confidence in the budget numbers. Citizens may argue about the choices made in the budget. But they must have confidence that these choices, and the facts and assumptions behind them, are fully and fairly presen-

ted, Gardom said.

One significant promise is the introduction of a universal childcare pro- gram.

Again, cost details and other specifics will have to wail unti] the budget is re- lease.

The government also wants to strike whal it calls a balance negotiating land claims treaties,

“Moving in an extreme way in any one of these areas would

undermine steady, stable progress in our province,” Gardom said.
