It's important you know that we also suffer from "senseless crime" :
A man described as one of the ringleaders in the 2012 theft of 3000 tons of maple syrup has been found guilty by a jury in Trois-Rivières, Que.
The elaborate caper saw the syrup go missing from a warehouse belonging to the Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers — the regulatory body that controls and manages the syrup trade.
The resulting investigation by the RCMP led to the arrests of 26 people.
According to evidence presented by the Crown, Vallières sold the stolen syrup to a New Brunswick man named St-Pierre. The syrup was then re-branded and made to appear as if it was from New Brunswick, not Quebec.
"You can't prove what tree the syrup came from," St-Pierre told the jury.
...the Mounties cracked the case, and justice will now be served (along with the pancakes and waffles.:)
