Nearly 1.7 tonnes of drugs worth $139M seized in Ontario investigation

In a major cross-border operation, Canadian and U.S. authorities seized nearly 1.7 tonnes of illegal drugs valued at over $139 million in Ontario. The investigation, known as Project Bay, involved multiple police forces and agencies, leading to 21 arrests and 102 charges. Authorities uncovered a 'broker-style' transportation model used by organized crime groups to conceal drugs in commercial truckloads. During raids across several Ontario communities, police confiscated large quantities of cocaine, methamphetamine, opium, and other items, including firearms, cash, jewelry, and electronic devices. The investigation, which began in early 2025, is still ongoing as authorities work to fully understand the scale of the trafficking network.

Bias read (Center): The article reports on a law enforcement operation targeting drug trafficking, focusing on factual details such as the amount of drugs seized, the number of arrests, and the nature of the criminal activity.
