That would be an operational decision of the RCMP, but what I can say is in the 12 years that I've been a Member of the Legislative Assembly, I don't recall a year where we've seen more drug seizures, illegal alcohol going into communities. We've had just today another three seizures in small communities across the NWT, and the number of drug busts is really something. It really gets back to the great police work that the RCMP are providing for us here in the NWT, and also campaigns like the Not Us! campaign and also Crime Stoppers. At the end of the day, community members have just had enough of the bootleggers and the drug dealers in their community and want to do something about it.
