Canada Border Services Agency officers have seized more than 266 kilograms of suspected methamphetamine at the Blue Water Bridge border crossing in Sarnia, marking one of the larger drug interceptions in the region this year.

According to the CBSA, a commercial truck arriving from the United States on February 4 was referred for a secondary inspection at the Blue Water Bridge port of entry. During a search of the trailer, officers, assisted by a detector dog, discovered 16 duffle bags containing suspected methamphetamine. The total weight of the seized narcotics was reported at 266.4 kilograms.

Authorities say Kulbir Singh, 29, of Woodstock, Ontario, was arrested at the scene. The CBSA transferred Singh and the seized drugs to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police for further investigation. The RCMP has charged Singh with importation of methamphetamine and possession of methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.

The case is now before the Ontario Court of Justice in Sarnia. The allegations have not been tested in court. The investigation remains ongoing.

The CBSA says that since January 1, 2025, officers in Southern Ontario have seized more than 616 kilograms of methamphetamine entering Canada from the United States, highlighting continued enforcement efforts at major border crossings.
