Len Gratto and Stacy Gowanlock of Mission, British Columbia have both been slapped with $5,200 inspection fees after having having their homes inspected by government officials.

This is not only happening in Mission B.C., This inspection process is also happening in Surrey , Richmond, Coquitlam, Langley, Langley City, Abbotsford, Pitt Meadows, Chilliwack and Port Coquitlam. Between 2005 and 2009 these cities conducted 3,528 inspections.

Under the safety inspection programs, inspectors armed with B.C. Hydro statistics on abnormal energy consumption can enter private homes without warrant. Sounds kinda familiar doesn't it? (Bill C-36).

"The safety inspections came about as a result of concerns over grow-ops that pose electrical hazards from faulty wiring and the overloading of residential electrical circuits." Globe and Mail

Once again a bypass around section 8 of the Canadian Charter Of Rights And Freedoms (Everyone has the right to be secure against unreasonable search or seizure.).

Oh but don't worry, it is all just to keep you safe! A fire could happen if there is faulty wiring. That is all the government is concerned about.

In the case of Len Gratto, the officials hit the jackpot! He was guilty of growing cucumbers in his basement. And with Stacy Gowanlock, they just missed it! Only finding some dirt residue and some piping leading to the chimney. What criminals these Canadians are! How dare they grow their own food! The audacity of some people eh.

The fight against marijuana has hit an all new low with this. Government officials being given the power to enter and inspect the homes of Canadians without a warrant, with police waiting at the front door. All because it may not be cucumbers, it could be the evil marijuana.

And then even if the officials do not find anything illegal, they slap you with a huge fee for making them search your home.

After the G20, and Bill C-36 trampling all over our rights as Canadians, this is just another way our government wanted to show that they love us, and only want to keep us safe! Forget about your rights and freedoms Canadians, just trust the government!

They will keep you safe, and keep all of those bad people who like to grow their own food in check! We need our police state!

According to the Sudbury Star a 15 year old girl was violated when she was forced to publicly have a full body pat-down at the Greater Sudbury Airport.

The key section of the article says:
"I asked them if they could take me instead and they said no. I asked if they at least could do it in private, BUT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE FACILITIES."

What makes this section of the article so important is that a few hours later a CBC news article came out titled: No U.S.-style pat-downs here: Strahl
"Travellers coming through Canadian airports won't have to worry that they will face public pat-downs like those happening in the U.S., Transport Minister Chuck Strahl promised Wednesday.

Privacy screens and booths are being installed at airports throughout Canada, which will give people the option of being screened in private, Strahl told reporters in Ottawa."

This is clearly a one, two punch by the main stream media, to get Canadians to accept the horrid TSA style pat downs. The first article paints the picture of a shy 15 year old girl that was humiliated by the airport security, and that having a private room to do that in would have greatly helped. Nothing about how the nazi style pat downs are direct breaches of our rights, or that they should not be happening in the first place.

In the second article They do not say that they will not conduct the invasive pat downs, or that these types of "random" searches are direct violations of our rights. Only that they will give an option to do it in private. Where there is no witnesses or camera's to prove or disprove what happens during the search.

Canadian officials have been watching the revolt against the TSA tyrannical pat downs, and have decided to try and look like the good guys. Don't worry everyone we are not like those evil TSA guys. We will take you into a private room where you are totally defenseless to conduct these illegal searches. And don't worry we are not incrementally heading into a police state. You can trust us!!!
