Only in Canada....
That's some serious crime they have up here in the great polite north...

Liquid gold bounty: $10K reward offered in maple syrup heist

http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/liquid-gold...-1.3026588

Quote: A trucking company is offering a $10,000 reward for the return of a large batch of maple syrup that was stolen from a holding facility in Montreal.
Police say the sticky-fingered thieves made off with the precious maple syrup overnight on Sunday, using a transport truck to haul the container trailer.
The 20,000 litre-batch of maple syrup was supposed to be shipped to Japan last Thursday, but Mexuscan Transport had been forced to store the shipment at the holding facility due to a delay.
Police recovered the trailer in the west Montreal borough of Saint Laurent, but the maple syrup was gone.
The golden cargo is worth an estimated $150,000.

Maple syrup is the standard behind their currency, so this makes plenty of sense to me.

I kind of wonder where you illegally sell 150,000$ worth of maple syrup.

Apparently this is not the largest maple syrup heist in Canadian history, in 2012 18 million dollars in maple syrup was stolen. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/2...-1.1212517
