The individual faces four charges: importing cocaine, possessing cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, importing heroin and possessing heroin for the purpose of trafficking.

“Stopping illicit drugs at the border takes constant vigilance, and our border officers at the Abbotsford-Huntingdon Port of Entry delivered,” said David Lee, director of the Pacific Highway District for the Canada Border Services Agency.

Lee said the seizure reflected the partnership between the CBSA and the RCMP in protecting Canadian communities from drug trafficking.

Staff Sgt. Eric Kimura of the RCMP Federal Policing Pacific Region Drugs and Organized Crime unit said the investigation demonstrated the positive impact of co-ordinated efforts with the CBSA.
