Investigators said the marijuana being smuggled in from British Columbia is a potent "gourmet pot" known as B.C. Bud. It wholesales for $3,000 a pound in California, compared to $400-a-pound marijuana smuggled in from Mexico.

Odd to me that we can catch a few gangs numbering 40 going north to south, but we can not catch thousands going south to north!!!

Must have some thing to do with the rotation of the earth![8D]

I hear ya Taz, there's some rugged terrain along the Northern Border and they can catch these smugglers using cameras...

Yea and down south there is a huge area of fairly open country where they could with a bit more effort easily be caught!
