Canada has become a major trafficking hub for meth and the club drug ecstasy."
Drug czar blames Canadian gangs for ecstasy rise in U.S. - thestar.com: "America's drug czar says the United States can slow the flow of illegal narcotics from Canada by getting its own drug problem under control.
Gil Kerlikowske, director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, says getting more Americans off drugs will help reduce the glut of ecstasy, meth, heroin, marijuana and cocaine crossing the Canada-U.S. border.
Kerlikowske, a former police chief in Seattle and Buffalo, said guns and drugs still move freely across the Canada-U.S. border.
“Smuggling of narcotics can often go into the United States, and in turn the flow of firearms into Canada, and I don't think that has changed in the many years I've spent along the border, unfortunately,” Kerlikowske said.
“I think that's why it's also so important to deal with the demand, because if we reduce our own consumption in the United States, if we prevent young people in Canada and the United States from using drugs, it will really help.”
