Mounties in British Columbia have discovered the “largest and most sophisticated” drug-production laboratory in Canadian history, federal investigators announced Thursday, describing the facility as a “super lab” operated by international organized criminals.
The facility, located east of Kamloops in the rural community of Falkland, was capable of producing several kilograms of methamphetamine, fentanyl and MDMA per week, David Teboul, an assistant commissioner with the federal RCMP in the Pacific region, announced at a news conference in Surrey.
