“We know that these drugs traveled all the way from Mexico, over the United States’ southern border, and then made their way here to Canada where we stopped and seized them,” said Toronto Police Chief Myron Demkiw at a press conference Tuesday, Jan. 21.

    I’m really proud of everyone for not making the tired “835 kilograms! What would someone do with 750 kilograms?” joke. It’s just the worst.

      Hands down the most rinsed out joke on the internet. I think less of anyone who seriously does it.
