Canadian border officials made what they say is the largest narcotic seizure in Prairie history earlier this month.
Officers snatched 406.2 kilograms of what’s believed to be methamphetamine from large suitcases inside a commercial truck on Jan. 14.
The semi-trailer, which was en route to Winnipeg, was searched at the Boissevain port of entry on Jan. 14, Ken MacGregor of the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) said at a news conference at Manitoba RCMP D Division headquarters in Winnipeg on Wednesday.
The total amount of suspected drugs seized adds up to about four million illicit doses with an estimated street value of more than $50.7 million.
