The Criminal Networks Hiding in Your Airport Line
Description
Think border security is just about checking receipts? Think again. Aaron McCrorie from CBSA reveals how organized crime uses the same customs lines we all pass through to move drugs, weapons, and people — and how border officers track patterns and intercept threats most travelers never see.
From coordinating with U.S., U.K., and Australian intelligence to watching criminal groups pivot from cargo ships to air couriers, Aaron breaks down the constant cat-and-mouse game behind Canada’s borders. He also shares what Canadians get wrong about CBSA’s role — and why being helpful is just as core as being vigilant.
It’s a global intelligence network, not just a customs kiosk — and Canada is right in the middle.
