RCMP Says Mexican Cartels Not Major Players in Canadian Drug Production After US Officials Raise Concerns

Mexican cartels do not have a “significant” presence in synthetic drug production in Canada, the RCMP said in reaction to concerns among top U.S. law enforcement officials that the cartels are moving operations to Canada to produce and distribute fentanyl.

Available intelligence indicates Mexican cartels “do not have a significant or controlling presence in Canada’s synthetic drug production landscape,” an RCMP spokesperson told The Epoch Times.
