Air Canada Worker Busted for Cannabis Smuggling

0:00An air-canada worker at Toronto's airport just got hit with serious charges for trying to sneak over 60 kilograms of cannabis out of the country. Cops say the guy slapped fake luggage tags on the drug-filled suitcases using the names of two random passengers who had no clue. Here's how it went down. The employee was in the baggage area, rigging identical bags that nobody had checked in. When security sniffed something off, they pulled the passengers aside and both swore they never touched those bags. Those travelers played his strain, fully cooperating with the mountain and walked free without a single charge. No harm to them, but it shines a light on insider risks and major hubs like Pearson. The suspects at 32-year-old from Mississauga, Ontario, facing counts of possession for export and conspiracy to commit a crime. RCMP nailed the plot quick after spotting the red flags. This bus reminds us security is always evolving. Even against folks on the inside, keeps the skies a bit safer for everyone flying these days.
