Canadian police pushing to seize contraband in mail before delivery.

Been reading this subreddit for quite a while, despite not using the markets myself. Just a little bit of relevant news.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, though the bedrock idea that anyone can send something to someone else's address is rather unshakeable. The idea that a recipient is guilty for merely having received a product in their post surely will not stand up to any scrutiny.

Wow. You guys in Canada have some real rights up there. They can't open a letter at the border if its less than 28 grams or whatever. They can't look at mail in transit. I'm moving to The Great North, eh!
