In 2006, the RCMP recorded six times more contraband cigarette seizures than in 2001.

Do you think that's because of an increase in contraband cigarettes or better law enforcement?

I'm a bit surprised by your statement that your association passed on 28 tips on illegal activities to the RCMP and that nothing unfortunately came of them. The RCMP says it made six times more contraband cigarette seizures in 2006 than in 2001.

How do you explain that, please?
