Original Toronto Star caption: Why is this man smiling? You might be smiling, too, if you were RCMP Constable Carl Broughton and holding a gallon of moonshine, part of 35 gallons of illicit alcohol and an illegal still the Mounties uncovered in Downsview last Friday. The RCMP say homemade hooch can be poisonous. A Skye Ct. man has been charged.
