The raid was the result of a nearly year-long investigation by the RCMP FSOC and the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
Police seized a large amount of Canadian currency, five vehicles and twelve firearms, an unidentified quantity of the fentanyl pre-cursor chemical Aniline, as well as over 1180 kilograms of dried cannabis and over 5300 cannabis plants.
Six people were arrested as a result of the search and seizure operation.
Authorities have a stern reminder about the cash crop: "Cannabis is still illegal in most of the world and exportation is a serious offence in Canada. This enforcement action highlights the fact that organized crime will attempt to exploit medically licenced cannabis production in Canada," said Superintendent Richard Bergevin.
