On July 18, 2025, Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officers at Vancouver International Airport intercepted 29 kg of methamphetamine from the luggage of a traveller destined for Hong Kong. Officers discovered the methamphetamine concealed in gift-wrapped packages within two suitcases. This quantity of methamphetamine represents an estimated 150,000 individual doses.

The CBSA arrested the traveller who was later transferred to the custody of RCMP Border Enforcement Officers with Federal Policing – Pacific Region. Shiyu Deng, a 25-year-old citizen of China, has been charged with the following offences under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act:

  • Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking
  • Possession for the Purpose of Exporting
  • Exporting a Controlled Substance

The charges are subject to validation by the court.

Shiyu Deng has been remanded until their next court appearance on August 6, 2025 and the investigation is ongoing.

The CBSA and the RCMP are committed to protecting our communities from harmful contraband and organized crime.
