Ontario police bust alleged dark-web trafficking network that used Canada Post to ship drugs

Описание: Ontario Provincial Police say they’ve dismantled a drug ring that allegedly used the dark web and Canada Post to ship drugs across the country.

At a news conference on Tuesday, police announced they seized more than $2.5 million worth of drugs destined to be shipped to “marketplace” buyers in British Columbia, Nunavut, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island.

A first-of-its-kind investigation dubbed Project Bionic, police said they began their investigation into the alleged criminal network in November 2024. On March 10, OPP officers arrested two suspects at a Canada Post location in Ottawa where they seized 86 packages containing various drugs that police say were about to be shipped nationwide.
