The B.C. RCMP’s officer in charge of the federal serious and organized crime unit said this operation, and others like this, are crucial in combatting the ongoing drug crisis in the province.

It's only a crisis because drugs are illegal, free of regulations and inspection. If the government abandoned their "wAr oN dRuGs" and instead spent all that money regulating "narcotic" production then there wouldn't be a crisis.
