Canada’s customs agents did not seize any contraband by rail over a four-year period before 2022, federal records show.

“The CBSA [Canada Border Services Agency] did not seize any illegal items from train cars for the years 2018 to 2021 inclusively,” cabinet wrote in an Inquiry of Ministry tabled in the House of Commons by Conservative MP Adam Chambers last November, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.
