La police saisit 150 plants de cannabis
La police de Québec a saisi 150 plants de cannabis, dimanche après-midi, en bordure de l'autoroute 40.
Les plants ont été découvert dans un secteur boisé de l'arrondissement de Sainte-Foy grâce à la vigilance d'un agent de conservation de la faune.
La valeur de cette récolte est estimée à plus de 150 000 dollars sur le marché noir.
Les plants, qui atteignaient plus d'un mètre de haut, poussaient tout près de la route. Aucun suspect n'a été arrêté dans ce dossier.
des histoires comme ça, c'est trop souvent.... ils sont con ces policiers... !
Quebec Gold: the other Canadian marijuana
Marijuana is the most widely abused and commonly available illicit drug in the United States, and most of the "smoke" that finds its way into this country still comes from Mexico and Colombia. In recent years, however, Canada has also become a source country for high-grade marijuana called "BC Bud" and "Quebec Gold," substances that are rapidly gaining market share in the United States. Marijuana cultivation has become a thriving industry in Canada for two reasons: low risk and high profits. Most of the marijuana coming out of Canada is still grown in British Columbia, but in the last 10 years, growers have also gone into business in Ontario and Quebec.
High potency
Marijuana has always been available throughout the United States, but quality tends to vary. Marijuana potency is not usually characterized by purity, but by tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content. Unlike the high-grade marijuana of 10 years ago, which averaged 7 to 14 percent THC, some tested samples of sinsemilla, grown indoors using heavily fertilized water, powerful lights, high heat, and humidity, have achieved potencies of nearly 30 percent.
"This isn't the stuff you might have smoked in college," said Staff Sergeant Chuck Doucette, a drug investigator with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. "This is high-powered product that's producing hundreds of millions of dollars in profits for some very nasty characters, and most of it is going straight to the United States market."
