Cops nab $5 million in drugs
By SARAH KENNEDY
December 13, 2006 - Calgary Sun

Police in Calgary have helped to crack an international drug smuggling ring that was responsible for removing more than $5 million worth of drugs off the streets.

The nine-month investigation dubbed Project IDEA involved members of Alberta’s Integrated Response to Organized Crime (IROC), the United States Drug Enforcement Agency and the United States Immigration Customs Enforcement, said Insp. Joan McCallum.

“Investigators targeted an organized network that was allegedly using small airplanes to move marijuana and cocaine into Canada from Montana,” said McCallum.

As a result of the joint investigation, two Alberta men and three men from B.C. have been charged.

Investigators seized about 500 kg of marijuana; 30 kg of cocaine; 9,000 tablets of Diazepam and 210 vials of Ketamine.

The drugs have a combined street value of $5.2 million and were all seized in the United States, said McCallum.

A Smith Aerostar 601, twin engine airplane valued at $200,000 was also seized.

“Any IROC bust is significant because it’s our mandate to disrupt and dismantle organized crime,” said McCallum.

“We’ve dismantled this group ... they won’t be able to operate anymore.

“And this just takes that amount of drugs off the street.”

The five men were arrested in various locations throughout the U.S.

Garry Hamilton, 52, of Invermere, B.C., Graham Owen, 48, of Calgary, Daniel Tican, 24, of Calgary were arrested in California and charged with conspiracy to import marijuana and conspiracy to export cocaine.

Terry Holt, 51, of Invermere was arrested in February in Montana and Christopher Carew, 26, of Vancouver was arrested in September in Utah.

“It is believed the drugs seized were destined for communities in Alberta and British Columbia,” said McCallum.

Ya, it may cause a drought of these drugs in that area for days, perhaps a week.

"To do right is to know what you want. Now when you are dissatisfied with yourself it's because you are after something you don't really want. What objects are you proposing to yourself? Are they the objects you really value? If they are not, you are cheating yourself. I don't meant that if you chose to pursue the objects you most value, you will attain them; of course not. Your experience will tell you that. But success in getting after much labor what you really don't care for is the bitterest and most ridiculous failure." -George Santayana

Pot, coke, valium and....ketamine? Seems like an abnormal variety of drugs to be dealing.
