Reading through some Canadiana files I came across a reference to this report. Were they serious?

Bruce,

I have not read the file, so I don’t know the level of detail that might be found.

Found humour
 

One day in the intelligence centre where I worked in Afghanistan there was a laugh and a call from across the floor. Four of the Five Eyes were present, and we supported all contingents who did not have access to all of the same sources as us. The senior officer was called over. In a stern voice he announced that following yesterday's raid on a marijuana processing facility and confiscation of X tons of illegal drugs, 'the Dutch would attend the burning of the marijuana'.
