Summary: Canadian police dismantled the largest drug “super lab” in the country, seizing a record amount of fentanyl, methamphetamine, and firearms. The operation was linked to organized crime and had been mass-producing and distributing drugs across Canada and internationally.
Wait… So they fly this stuff all the way from Canadia to Mexico and then have the Guatemalans sneak across our open borders into Texas to kill kids? Ohhhhhh. Now I got it.
I mean, one of the benafits for fentanyl specifically from the perspective of drug dealers is that it’s a synthetic. With heroin or cocaine or something you have to have space to grow the plants or a source for the plants and those can only grow easily at certain latitudes, etc. So you’re limited by the supply chain. With synthetics you can set up a lab anywhere relatively easily, like in Canada for example
It’s also significantly more potent making smuggling that much more efficient. Orders of magnitude more doses per unit mass.
