  1. Wet Back In Canada from Canada writes: Drugs in sport reflects drugs in society and, in Canada, drugs are protected by the judiciary.

    In a fixed case, Bev McLachlin at the Supreme Court of Canada, acquited Martin Chambers, the Lex Luther of organized crime in western Canada and the cocaine dealer to the legal and judicial profession in Vancouver, on the bogus claim he did not join the drug gang to traffick in cocaine but to win back the affections of his girl friend.

    The BC judiciary, compliments of Judge Gordon, allowed cocaine smuggler Ajitpal Singh Sekhon to walk after he was caught bringing 50 kilos into Canada.

    It is time to start dope testing Canadian judges.
