I saw that on the news, serious business!
In this area real maple syrup is selling between $45.00 and $50.00 per gallon!
At that price it is still a pretty good deal. The traditional rule has always been that a gallon of syrup was worth a days pay for unskilled labor.

I wonder what they plan on doing with it?
I have a 2 liter jug of it. I can't imagine 1 1/2 Olympic swimming pool's worth! It is amazing what people will steal these days.

It's worth a ton of money. I'd bet they had a customer already lined up.

from the associated press newswire, this just in: thieves have hit a buttermilk factory in northern michigan, making off with hundreds of gallons of product.
in a similar story, recent shipments of flour have been hijacked along routes through the upper peninsula of michigan.
police have a suspect in custody, but are at a loss after he is still explaining his whereabouts at the times of the crimes for the third straight day, non-stop. the bureau of indian affairs has been called in to try to make sense of it all.
details to follow...

Stirling's response to that was, "We have our priorities straight here in Canada."

I didn't know that the RCMP kept an eye out for maple syrup being transported across provincial lines...but if such is the case, how did the cocaine go undetected?
The dogs are only trained to alert on maple syrup...

Oh geez. And nobody noticed the cocaine.
Thank goodness for the maple syrup sniffing dogs.
