Episode notes
U.S. Intelligence Predated RCMP Action
- The U.S. had detailed intelligence linking Chinese precursor shipments to a Vancouver business and asked the RCMP to investigate.
- The RCMP initially refused to cooperate, forcing U.S. Treasury sanctions that pressured Canada to act.
Triangular Nexus Behind Superlabs
- The Falkland site contained precursors capable of producing tens of millions of lethal fentanyl doses and tied to China and Mexican cartels.
- Sam frames a triangular nexus of China supplying precursors, Mexican cartels running labs, and Iran-linked laundering actors.
Eroding Trust With Five Eyes Allies
- U.S. officials now distrust Canadian law enforcement and limit intelligence sharing due to perceived integrity and capability issues.
- That distrust risks corroding Five Eyes cooperation and leaves Canada isolated on transnational crime.
