— Hamilton police raided a controversial medical marijuana grow-operation after the National Post revealed it was operated by a gangster who had been murdered in Toronto. “The Hamilton Police Service received information in regards to a marijuana grow operation at 229 Kenilworth Ave. N. in the City of Hamilton,” says a written statement from police. The city was surprised since it started without contacting city licensing or zoning officials and officials complained it circumvented all municipal processes, said Merulla. RelatedOn April 6, the Post revealed the victim of a gangland-style slaying in Toronto was heavily involved in the medical marijuana business. Sergi not only led a province-wide bid to unionize medical marijuana growers but also was behind the Kenilworth pot farm.
