The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) announced the arrest of a foreign national who was attempting to smuggle a significant amount of methamphetamine across the Abbotsford-Huntingdon port of entry in British Columbia.

 

On November 22, 2025, CBSA border services officers examined a commercial vehicle returning to Canada from the United States. With the support of the CBSA Detector Dog Team, officers detected 12 boxes containing 314 kg of methamphetamine concealed within the truck and trailer.

 

This interception represents the largest narcotics seizure to date at the Abbotsford-Huntingdon port of entry.

 

The CBSA arrested the driver who was then transferred to the custody of the RCMP Federal Policing Pacific Region, Integrated Border Enforcement Team (FPPR IBET).

 

Satnam Singh was arrested and charged under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act with:

possession of Methamphetamine for the purpose of Importation into Canada, and, possession of Methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking.

 


“This large seizure represents another truckload of illegal drugs that will not end up in our communities. It is a product of the dedicated work by the CBSA and RCMP who are on the front lines in the fight against drug trafficking and organized crime. Through their efforts, we are securing our borders, dismantling international crime networks and keeping Canadians safe,” said, Gary Anandasangaree, Minister of Public Safety

 

“CBSA officers are working around the clock to ensure the security of Canada’s border. This is the largest narcotics seizure to date at the Abbotsford-Huntingdon port of entry. In partnership with the RCMP, we continue to put pressure on criminal networks, disrupt the flow of illegal drugs and keep dangerous individuals out of our communities.” stated Nina Patel, Regional Director General, Canada Border Services Agency, Pacific Region

 

“Working alongside our CBSA partners, we’ve executed a significant seizure that demonstrates our collective strength in dismantling transnational drug networks before they can harm our communities. I commend our investigators whose diligent work has not only led to criminal charges but reinforces our commitment to identifying and stopping those who attempt to exploit our borders for illicit trafficking,” added Stephen Lee, Acting Regional Commander, RCMP Federal Policing, Pacific Region
