The province’s Civil Forfeiture Office files claim after RCMP raid in October on property that was allegedly used in the production, possession, storage and trafficking of illicit drugs
British Columbia ’s Civil Forfeiture Office is targeting a rural Okanagan property that the RCMP say housed the largest and most sophisticated methamphetamine and fentanyl lab in the country when they raided the premises last fall.
The RCMP have linked the lab to another property they raided last September in Enderby, B.C., which housed 30 tonnes of precursor chemicals allegedly used by the lab. RCMP officials said they were particularly concerned to discover, for the first time in Western Canada, a particular methamphetamine precursor that has been made for years by cartels in Mexico.
None of the allegations have been proven in court. Mr. Driehuyzen, an Abbotsford, B.C., man, could not be reached for comment.
