ON February 19, a commercial truck arriving at Ontario’s Blue Water Bridge port of entry from the United States was referred by a Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officer for a secondary examination. During the inspection of the trailer, border services officers found and seized 111.4 kg of suspected cocaine.
The CBSA arrested Sarkaren Vir Singh, 29, of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, and Chamkaur Singh, 25, of Belleville, Ontario. Both individuals and the seized narcotics were transferred to the RCMP. The two men have since been charged with importation of cocaine, and possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.

Both matters are currently before the Ontario Court of Justice in Sarnia, Ontario. The charges are subject to validation by the court.
Since January 1, 2025, border services officers in CBSA’s Southern Ontario Region have seized 1,743 kg of cocaine coming from the U.S.
“Canada will not tolerate any attempts to undermine the integrity and security of its borders. I thank the CBSA and RCMP for their commitment to stopping criminal activities and safeguarding our communities,” said federal Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree.
“This significant cocaine seizure highlights the critical role the CBSA plays in disrupting the flow of illegal drugs into Canada and keeping our communities safe. The vigilance and dedication of border services officers in Southern Ontario is protecting and securing our border, “ said Michael Prosia, Regional Director General – Southern Ontario Region, CBSA.
“The RCMP is committed to working closely with the CBSA and our law‑enforcement partners to prevent dangerous narcotics from reaching Ontario communities. This seizure reflects the strong collaboration and dedication of our officers in disrupting organized crime and protecting our border,” said Superintendent Dale Foote, OIC Border Integrity, RCMP Federal Policing – Central Region.
