CBC article demonizes steroids and steroid dealers

[Millard]

A new CBC article demonizes every aspect related to steroid use: steroids irreparably damage internal organs, steroid dealers "roam around local gyms" preying on bodybuilders, and even worse - steroid dealers even have special storage rooms for steroids and the "accoutrements that go with it."

Glenn Kulka, 49, was told by a doctor his liver, kidneys and other internal organs suffered irreparable damage by a decade of steroid use...

"I have to look at the damage I have done and that's a tough pill, the hardest pill I've ever had to swallow," he said, surrounded by several weights and workout machines inside his gym.

Ten years of steroid use took a toll on his internal organs, according to Kulka’s doctor, who also said he might not live past 65 years old. That means he could miss his children's high school graduations and other important life events.

Drug dealers also roam around local gyms looking for prospective clients, claim Kulka and trainer Geoff Makhoul...

Personal trainer Geoff Makhoul says steroid dealers prey on people who want a quick solution for weight loss and muscle gain....

Makhoul said he hasn’t seen any dealers at his gym, but he has heard anecdotes of such dealers in Ottawa.

The unit is learning more about how steroids are sold and stored, though. In a cocaine bust last week, officers came upon a room built just for steroid storage.

"There were shelves made specifically for all these little vials and the accoutrements that go with it," said Staff Sgt. Mike Laviolette, who heads the unit. "It's not anything we've ever seen."

The current Conservative Government is getting stupid on victimless crime, until recently growing pot was very rarely a jail sentence..... Now 5 plants or more and its a mandatory minimum.

I wouldn't be surprised if they make some changes to AAS laws, currently possession isn't illegal.

Decades of stupidly using ibuprofen will raise your chances of kidney disease too. Time to go down to the local pHARMacy to do that.

I wish conservatism went back to being 'none of your damn business' on personal issues.

Yep..... I agree with most of what they stand for, except for all of the up in your ass take away your personal freedom BS.

That's a good point about the ibuprofen too, god knows how many pain pills those guys were taking back in the day.... The WWE guys were eating them like candy just to get through the day.
