Update on the missing Canadian beer
Edited on Tue Aug-24-04 05:05 PM by Archae
I really don't see what the big deal is, 50,000 cans of Canadian beer, worth $75,000 Canadian, 75 cents US...:evilgrin:

Police find truck driver who went missing

By CHRIS MORRIS

WOODSTOCK, N.B. (CP) - More than a week after thieves in New Brunswick made off with more than 50,000 cans of Moosehead beer from the back of a transport trailer, police have tracked down the truck's driver in Ontario.

Wade Haines, 30, disappeared Aug. 17 after his truck was found almost empty and still running in Grand Falls, N.B.

Two investigators from New Brunswick, responding to a tip reported Monday, found Haines in the southern Ontario community of Lindsay.

Police had earlier said Haines was not considered a suspect in the case, but they did want to speak with him.

Earlier in the day, police said they recovered at least 5,000 cans of the stolen suds from a farmer's field on the outskirts of Woodstock in western New Brunswick.

The cans had spilled from a makeshift trailer after it broke free from a Ford pickup that was hauling the illegal load towards Woodstock on Monday night. The pickup sped away from the scene.

3. I have heard that this is a common practice on the continent

Sad to hear the Canadians are doing it too - my personal sampling seems to indicate that the Canadian horses are enjoying a better diet, though.

4. Of course, you know what American beer
and making love in a canoe have in common.












They're both fucking near water.
