Television public affairs program. Shoplifting is examined. A shoplifter explains himself and demonstrates his skills in a busy department store. The viewer finds out why he shoplifts, how he feels about it, how it feels to live on Welfare, and how he came to shoplift - the person was no longer shoplifting at time of interview. Also, the Chairman of the Waterloo Regional Laws Committee, Bryce Ruhnke, reveals the cost of shoplifting to the consumer, tells how the merchants protects themselves, and what deterrents make shoplifting unattractive. Another committee member, Norman Riddlough, explains the complicity of consumers who allow observed shoplifters to steal without alerting store security. He recommends an alternative solution to prosecution and letting theft pass unprosecuted. <30mn>
