A commercial truck driver was arrested at the Blue Water Bridge port of entry following the discovery of a large narcotics shipment.
As CityNews Toronto first reported, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) confiscated 385 kilograms of suspected cocaine on Aug. 13, 2026, at the Point Edward port of entry in southwestern Ontario.
Reporting from CityNews Toronto indicates that the seizure occurred after a commercial truck was flagged for secondary examination at the Blue Water Bridge port of entry. During the inspection, border services officers detected and seized the narcotics. The CBSA arrested the driver, who was subsequently charged by the RCMP with possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking and importing a controlled substance.
This incident follows a significant drug bust on July 23, in which the CBSA and other law enforcement agencies seized 1.7 tonnes of illegal drugs in southern Ontario. CityNews Toronto reports that the CBSA has seized more than 4,500 kilograms of crack and cocaine during the 2025-26 fiscal year.
