ANYWAY, it's interesting how vehicle theft is actively pursued due to our

Here in Ontario Canada, auto theft is low priority. Either you find it
abandoned somewhere within a week, or it is gone fore-ever. If the
cops catch the thief it is an unexpected bonus.

They DO go after chop-shops agressively when they stumble across one.
