On September 11, 2024, thanks to the vigilance of staff, prohibited and unauthorized items were seized at Archambault Institution, a federal institution with multiple security levels.

Among the seized prohibited and unauthorized items were hashish, marijuana and tobacco. In total, the institutional value of the seized items is estimated at $80,400.

The Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) has a number of tools to prevent the introduction of drugs into its institutions. These tools include ion scanners and drug-detector dogs to search buildings, personal property, inmates and visitors.

CSC is strengthening measures to prevent contraband from entering its institutions to ensure a safe and secure environment for all. CSC is also working in partnership with police forces to take action against individuals who attempt to bring contraband into correctional institutions.

CSC has established a telephone information line for all federal institutions to provide additional information on activities related to the security of CSC institutions. This may include activities related to drug use or trafficking that may threaten the safety of visitors, inmates or people working in CSC institutions.

Using the toll-free line, 1-866-780-3784, helps ensure that the information transmitted is protected and that anonymity remains maintained.
