Police group backs stiffer drug stance

OTTAWA -- The 50,000-member Canadian Police Association yesterday hailed the Harper government's promise of a new get-tough drug strategy, expected to be unveiled this week. "That is a cornerstone, because a lot of violence is related to drugs," said association president Tony Cannavino, after a Parliament Hill ceremony to honour fallen law-enforcement officers.


Tony Cannavino must have been misquoted. This is what he really means:

"That is a cornerstone, because a lot of violence is related to the drug war."
