A North York man is facing multiple drug charges after a traffic stop in North Grenville, in which Ontario Provincial Police officers uncovered branded and professionally packaged cannabis products.

On Friday, November 13, the Grenville County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) stopped a vehicle on Highway 416, near the Rideau River Road exit, just north of Kemptville. 

A search of the vehicle turned up more than $15,100 worth of cannabis products, including marijuana, vape pens and edibles.

A 25-year-old was arrested and charged with the following offences:

  • Possession of over 30g dried cannabis in a public place
  • Distribute over 30g of dried cannabis
  • Distribute illicit cannabis
  • Possession of cannabis for the purpose of distributing
  • Possession of proceeds of property obtained by crime under $5000

He was released and is due in court in Brockville on Friday, January 29, 2021. 

Renfrew OPP officers arrested an Ottawa man back on October 30, after they stopped a vehicle associated with an online cannabis delivery service operating under the name Royal Kush Company.

Anyone with information is asked to call the OPP at 1-888-310-1122, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-(TIPS) 8477 or submit your tip online at www.ontariocrimestoppers.ca.
