3 Charged After Clandestine Drug Lab Dismantled in Quebec
Investigators seized nearly four million tablets and 5.8 kilograms of pure methamphetamine, along with chemicals and a pill press, RCMP said.
On Friday, the RCMP announced that three Quebec men face charges following the 2025 dismantling of a clandestine methamphetamine laboratory in Bromont, located in the Eastern Townships.
The Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit opened the case in the fall of 2024, launching a two-year investigation that uncovered the drug operation hidden inside a warehouse trailer in Bromont.
During the raid, the RCMP recovered nearly 4 million methamphetamine tablets and 5.8 kilograms of pure meth, alongside "sophisticated" equipment used for large-scale production.
Jean-Sébastien Sévigny, Guillaume Joly, and Guillaume Bourgault face charges under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, with defendants scheduled to appear in court on August 24 at the Granby courthouse.
Authorities also discovered "significant quantities" of chemicals during the operation, illustrating the scale of the facility dismantled in May 2025 after the extensive investigation.
Three individuals were charged on Friday with manufacturing and trafficking methamphetamine in connection with the dismantling last year of a clandestine laboratory by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).
