The Toronto Police Service have announced the takedown of a major international drug-smuggling ring under Project Brisa, which saw more than 1,000 kilograms of cocaine, crystal meth, and marijuana being transported between Mexico, California, and Canada using modified tractor trailers.
Dubbed Project Brisa, the six-month investigation led officers to work in partnership with Canadian and American law enforcement agencies as well as agencies throughout southwestern Ontario and across Canada.
It is alleged that between November 2020 and May 2021, investigators identified those responsible for transporting the illicit substances across borders for sale in Canada. It is further alleged this was made possible by the installation of hydraulic traps in tractor-trailers, capable of smuggling 100 kilograms of substance in a single trip.

Points to Ponder
Will International Investigation Agencies ever acknowledge the fact that most of the arrested in Project Brisa are Khalistani and Pakistan supporters?
Will the International Agencies try to establish link between Khalistanis in US and Canada, Drug Money and their sponsorship of protests, riots, terrorism in India?
