Operator Of Ontario Heavy Equipment Business Arrested In $200 Million Cocaine Bust
Excerpt:
.....A Brantford man who runs a heavy equipment repair business has been charged in a massive cocaine importing bust that has allegedly taken almost $200 million of the drug off the streets of the GTA.
The arrest was announced by the Canada Border Services Agency and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police this week, almost a month after 1.5 tonnes of cocaine was seized by CBSA officers in Saint John, N.B.
The shipment was destined for a heavy equipment business in Brantford, authorities said.
The intercepted cocaine was removed in New Brunswick on Jan. 7 and the rest of the shipment continued on to Brantford, where arrests were made on Jan. 27.
Authorities didn’t say which crime groups were involved in the smuggling operation.
The cocaine was travelling a winding route from Costa Rica, through Colombia, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic inside secret compartments in a large piece of machinery, authorities said.
The CBSA estimated the value of the seizure at approximately $198,000,000.
“The narcotics were discovered concealed inside the cargo of a marine container; this represents the largest quantity of cocaine seized from a marine shipping container in Atlantic Canada in three decades,” the RCMP said in a prepared statement.
...Five of the six people arrested in Brantford on Jan. 27 have since been freed with no charges.
Kyle Alexander Purvis, 34, of Brantford was charged with importing a controlled substance into Canada and possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking.
Corporate records list Purvis as director of a heavy equipment repair and service company on Mohawk Street in Brantford.
And not to be outdone:

Police forces in Clackamas County, Oregon, arrested four accused drug traffickers, leading authorities to the seizure of 150,000 fentanyl pills—the largest seizure of fentanyl in the state’s history. A press release by the Department of Justice detailed Thursday that the staggering find was valued at close to $4 million.
Authorities have charged Ufrano Orozco Munoz, 27, Abraham Vera Enriquez, 29, Jesus Miguel Zamora Cruz, 36, and Jose Javier Valdez Paramo, 32, with conspiring with one another to possess with intent to distribute fentanyl
In a court memo, Assistant U.S. Attorney Scott Kerin emphasized the significance of the seizure. “To say that the defendants are significant drug dealers is an understatement. Fentanyl is extremely destructive and deadly, and these defendants should not be given the opportunity to start dealing again,” Kevin said.....

There may be riots in the homeless encampments in Portland due to the bust. Isn’t this the same DOJ that, with local officials, let the Antifa/BlM fascists take over Portland in 2020?/s
Will not be surprised if the Canadian, if convicted, gets a slap on the wrist for sentencing and maybe a couple pounds of coke as a parting gift when released./s
