The MLA for Steinbach is encouraged by the news.  Kelvin Goertzen says R.C.M.P. have informed him illegal drug activity in Steinbach and area has declined significantly in recent months.  They credit a combination of stepped up enforcement, better education on how to prevent drug use and a good outreach from community organizations to offer hope to young people.  Goertzen adds this is a good start, but in order to be successful, all of us must remain vigilant.  He also expects other regions may want to pick up on this model of information, outreach and law enforcement to curtail street drugs.
