Mounties have wiped out a field of opium poppies in B.C.'s Fraser Valley in a first-of-its kind drug bust that's also revealed a much larger problem within the South Asian community.

Police believe the flower pods were meant to make the drug doda that gives its users an opium-like high and is said to be commonly used by taxi and truck drivers.

Chilliwack RCMP say the illegal crop on almost three hectares was the largest opium poppy field ever found in Canada and the 60,000 mature plants were almost ready to harvest.

We see Indian-American kids a lot in science competition, Jeopardy, spell bee and other competition ( in top 3-4 too)? Why not Indian Canadian kids?
