Canada to designate Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations

From Global News.

Canadian Public Safety Minister David McGuinty provided additional details Tuesday about the appointment of a “fentanyl czar,” though he declined to say yet whether anyone has been tapped for the role.

McGuinty said the position would work together with federal and local law enforcement, attorneys general and Health Canada’s laboratories system, as well as officials from Global Affairs Canada.

The minister also spoke about the designation of Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations, saying it would give police “more powers to… track the money, follow the assets and disrupt the activities of cartels.”
