CBSA says 67 per cent of drugs seized in month-long operation were coming into Canada

  • The Canada Border Services Agency conducted Operation Blizzard from February 12 to March 13, 2025, targeting illegal drugs at the Canada-U.S. Border and nationwide.
  • Operation Blizzard formed part of Canada's $1.3-billion boosted border security plan, created in response to tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump, who linked them to fentanyl flow.
  • The operation resulted in more than 2,600 interceptions of illegal drugs and precursor substances sent through postal services, air shipments, and sea containers, including 116 fentanyl seizures totaling 1.73 kilograms.
  • More than 67 percent of the drugs seized were entering Canada from the United States, while 17.5 percent of total seizures were destined for the U.S., with 1.44 kilograms of fentanyl headed that way.
  • CBSA president Erin O'Gorman said personnel work daily to stop criminals exploiting borders, and the agency continues efforts to detect, disrupt, and dismantle the fentanyl trade.
