90 kilos of Opium and 13 kilos of Meth seized in Ontario

The Peel police are reporting that "Project Vegas, concentrated on a criminal network responsible for the international importation and distribution of illegal narcotics. Investigation revealed illegal drugs were exported from Middle Eastern countries into other countries, including Canada, utilizing various concealment methods. The drugs were then distributed throughout the GTA and into Manitoba and British Columbia." 90 kilos of Opium and 13 kilos of Crystal meth were seized.

That's rather odd. Opium is used to make heroin but you don't see much opium around here. I wonder if the crystal meth was coming or going. This one is suspicious. I wonder if people are smoking opium in hookah lounges. Those hookah pipes look like opium pipes to me.

  2. Agreed, opium and the amount of it sounds weird, there's no way all the old guys in Chinatown are smoking that much. Remember that bust of all the raw opium seized at the Port of Tsawwassen? It sounds counterintuitive, but maybe this stuff is actually being refined further here in Canada?

    1. I remember that single opium seizure locally. I thought that was strange at the time as well. I don't know why it's not refined here. It just feels shady.

    1. Interesting. A reader said someone tried to sell them opium in Ontario. Since the Taliban stopped the production of opium in Afghanistan the CIA have to get it from new sources now.
