In a recent announcement, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) revealed the seizure of thousands of liters of chemicals used in the production of illicit drugs. On May 13th and 24th, officers discovered 4,300 liters of these substances within two marine containers originating from China, destined for Calgary. The seizure included 3,600 liters of 1,4 Butanediol, 500 liters of propionyl chloride, and 200 liters of Gamma butyrolactone. Furthermore, the CBSA reported making a total of 12,193 seizures overall in the three months ending in August, encompassing a wide range of contraband.
Operation Blizzard, a month-long CBSA operation targeting drug trafficking, resulted in over 2,600 seizures nationwide. A significant majority (67%) of seized drugs originated in the U.S., while a much smaller percentage (17.5%) was destined for the U.S. The operation yielded 1.73 kg of fentanyl, with the majority bound for the U.S. The initiative, part of a broader border security plan, underscores the ongoing efforts to combat the flow of illicit drugs across the Canada-U.S. border.
