Bike theft rackets have sprung up in cities all over north america. The only notable thing about this article is that Burlington's problems are a cliche. A friend who lives in the same neighbourhood as myself recently had cops hanging out in his garage to stake out the house across the alley, which was being used as a drug den/bike chopshop/whorehouse at the time. The police shut (the local) operation down eventually, but doubtless another sprung up not too far away.
