Following a review of the evidence, a report will be sent to the Public Prosecution Service of Canada (PPSC) for their assessment of CDSA charges.

Meanwhile, the RCMP offers tips to spot a crime house or drug dealer in your neighbourhood including regular and unusual traffic patterns, high pedestrian volume to a residence day and night and traffic stops where a resident comes out to talk briefly with the occupants of a vehicle.
