The police came looking for me the other day.

Don’t worry, I don’t have unpaid parking tickets or anything of that nature. The Canadian Professional Police Association had their lobby day on Parliament Hill, and I had the privilege of meeting three of Saskatchewan’s finest.

The police want to crack down on criminals. They need the right tools to protect you and me.

The police officers stressed that drugs are getting to be a big problem in Saskatchewan. Crystal Meth houses are springing up all over Saskatoon. Across the city, criminals are producing this harmful drug to addict and ruin people’s lives. Drug dealers put Crystal Meth in marijuana joints to addict their unsuspecting clients. The police officers also stated that rural Saskatchewan is becoming a favorite place for rural marijuana grow-ops.

I told the police that I would oppose any attempt to legalize these harmful drugs. I will fight hard to make sure that criminals actually serve their full sentences in prison. It is time we stop coddling criminals in Canada.

I’m Brad Trost, your Member of Parliament, and I welcome your feedback. Write or call my offices.
