A Cheesy Story

So two cops on the Ontario side in the Niagara peninsula are up for smuggling … cheese. No, not oxy, not sex slaves, but cheese.

So my question is: Why is it possible to turn a buck smuggling cheese? Let me guess. Really fantastic pizza cheese sells in the U.S. for one-third the price of mediocre Quebec cheese sold in Canada.

So why not just pay the duty and bring across the real thing from the U.S.? Now here IS THE RUB: It is illegal to import U.S. cheese that competes with the substandard Quebec product forced on Canadians across this entire country.

So in truth, the two charged policemen are crime fighters.

Who knows? Perhaps their efforts will lead to edible pizza in Canada.
