Members of the RCMP’s Toronto Airport Detachment seized the cannabis, which is legal in Canada, and arrested Renee Ashanta Henry. She has been charged with possession for the purpose of export, contrary to section 11 of the Cannabis Act. “This latest arrest again highlights the fact that if a passenger chooses to smuggle cannabis, they will be arrested and charged with serious criminal drug smuggling charges.”
Police are asking anyone with information related to drug importation, possession, smuggling or trafficking to contact them or Crime Stoppers anonymously.
