'Charges to be laid in Canada involving fentanyl shipments from China: RCMP'

Posted in the context of the problem this creates for buyers by delaying shipments from China. Although I haven't seen as many queries here on ebay Canada Community lately as there was for awhile. Did the delay in delivery decrease? Or have people come to understand it?

There seems to be a lot of the drug around still, but it is possible that Chinese government action has cut down on the number of shipments and CBSA is relaxing a little.

 

Given how far a single pill can be cut and added to other slightly less noxious drugs, new imports may not be necessary for a while.

 

I'm hoping that the availability of recreational marijuana will cut back on the use of harder drugs, just as the fad for vaping seems to be cutting back on tobacco sales.

 

I've long claimed that the entry into drug use is tobacco. I've never met an addict who didn't smoke. We lived next to a halfway house for years and I had a long running battle with the smokers on the porch who tossed their butts into my tomatoes.

It's something remarkable to me how similar each of these articles are to each other. As if press releases were rewritten.
