come to Canada!! Indoor, Outdoor we do it best!! and are definetely not going to listen to any Law we do not believe in " If laws are deemed immoral, you must disobey them"...
And of course in Canada the law is totally cool and the gang with someone ignoring and disobeying a law if that person or people deem the law to be immoral so they will never bust anyone who disobeys a law they deem to be immoral, right?
Bear Pack Greets Cops on Pot Bust in Canadian Woods

(Aug. 19) -- Canadian police on a bust in the woods of British Columbia found more than drugs at one remote cabin.
Cops in Christina Lake, a town of barely 1,500 year-round residents, were acting on an anonymous tip that a woman in the woods was up to something. When they arrived, they found $1 million worth of marijuana plants, but they weren't the only ones on the scene.

A Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer poses for a photo July 30 as bears walk toward him near a marijuana crop in Christina Lake, British Columbia.
Police were shocked to discover at least 10 full-grown black bears wandering the property. One officer grabbed a shotgun, fearing for his safety. To the officers' surprise, the bears were not hostile, and they seemed undisturbed by the sight of armed strangers.
"They soon realized [the bears] were very docile and very laid back, wandering throughout the property," Royal Canadian Mounted Police Sgt. Fred Mansveld
told The National Post.
It appeared the bears were being fed dog food. Black bears can weigh as much as 600 pounds in British Columbia, according to the tourist website
bcadventure.com.
The owners of the property, whose names were not released, assured the police that the bears weren't hostile.
Still, with at least 1,000 marijuana plants on the property, they had other problems. Police arrested the couple, one of whom is known locally as the "Bear Lady."
The so-called Bear Lady is, by all accounts, a private person. She lives deep in the woods, emerging only to buy basic provisions. Many Christina Lake residents didn't even know she was married.
Christina Lake is a rural community near the Gladstone Provincial Park. Bears, elk, deer and mountain sheep wander through the countryside, and it is easy to live a private -- and criminal -- lifestyle away from prying eyes.
Residents took a benign view of the Bear Lady.
"She's just different," one woman told The National Post. "She's very much into thinking the bears are part of her friends. I don't think she realizes they are not a domesticated animal."
It isn't clear if the woman was keeping the bears as pets, or if they were meant to guard her drug cultivation operation,
The New York Daily News reported.
Either way, the future for the bears is uncertain. Authorities in British Columbia have to kill dozens of bears each year if they rely on humans for food and then become a threat to public safety.
The bears were not the only guests on the property: Police also stumbled upon a pig and a raccoon napping in one of the bedrooms.
"The pig was a little frantic at the sight of police, but the raccoon was pretty laid back about the bust and took it all in stride," Cpl. Dan Moskaluk said,
according to The Canadian Press.
