Is this the first Canadian School to offer drug testing?

I would hope to never see a Canadian school following the American example and bringing drug-testing to the school system. Drug-testing is a feel-good solution to the drug problem that creates a lot of unintended consequences.

Should Dick or Jane wander into 100 Mile Junior one day and be suspected of being intoxicated or high, they could very well get enrolled in the latest course the school has to offer - Stimulant Analysis 101.

The principal of 100 Mile Junior, Mark Wintjes, has purchased test kits to detect alcohol and drug consumption.

Head of the school since Aug. 1, Wintjes made the decision to buy the kits in order to deter students from partaking.

I hope that Mr. Wintjes visits EFSDP for the scoop on drug testing. EFSDP does a much better job of explaining the pitfalls of drug-testing than I ever could.
