Correctional Service Canada reported in Kingston, Ontario, on October 13 that between October 2 and October 7, 2026, staff seized multiple packages containing contraband and unauthorized items at Collins Bay Institution, a multi-level security federal institution.

The items seized included tobacco, marijuana, cannabis concentrate, crystal methamphetamine, hashish, morphine and drug paraphernalia, as well as cell phones and accessories. The Correctional Service of Canada put the total estimated institutional value of the seizures at $145,045.

The service said it uses a number of tools to prevent drugs from entering its institutions, and that its toll-free tip line, 1-866-780-3784, protects shared information and keeps callers anonymous. The release did not announce charges arising from the seizures.
