I used 10,000 because it's that number where I'm sure it would be higher. I know from my previous career—especially in the drug section—that “trade” was used quite often, and it was a way in which we were able to capture both offences. It's something to consider, and I thought it was funny that it was left out.
My second question is with regard to this becoming an offence under the Criminal Code. It's my understanding that under the Excise Act, the RCMP has jurisdiction because they're the federal component, and that a lot of municipal police forces, even some provincial police forces, do not have authority under the Excise Act.
Is this why this was created under the Criminal Code, so that all police forces across Canada would have the ability to lay charges?
