Peel police have arrested 15 people following an investigation into an auto theft ring that was allegedly stealing fully loaded commercial vehicles and then selling their cargo to unwitting buyers.

Police say the investigation, dubbed “Project Big Rig,” began in March, and was a joint-forces operation between Peel Regional Police, York Regional Police, the Toronto Police Service, Halton Regional Police and Ontario Provincial Police.

“As a result of this investigation, six locations were targeted within the GTA and warrants were executed,” said Det. Mark Haywood from the Peel police commercial and auto crime unit during a news conference in Mississauga Wednesday morning.

“Through the hard work of the investigative team, I'm pleased to share that the investigation resulted in the recovery of 28 containers of stolen cargo valued at $6.99 million. An additional 28 stolen tractors and trailers valued at $2.25 million were recovered. Total value of recovery: $9.24 million.”

Good job, Trudeau.

Justin Trudeau on Twitter: "We have now welcomed over 25,000 Syrian refugees to Canada. Welcome home."

They won’t be deported. The Canadian government will determine that their homelands are “too dangerous” to return them to.

“… charges laid in connection with GTA auto theft ring”

I thought the whole point of the video game “Grand Theft Auto” was to steal cars.

Oh…wait….

Islam, barbaric Islam has no place in western civilization. It it an occupying invasive enemy force with one thing in mind, supplanting the hosts constitution with their own.

Here Trudeau has given a serious appointment to the enemy. This appointment will only open the floodgates for the terrorists.
It’s no longer about maintaining the sovereignty of Canada, but contributing to the death to America agenda of the obamanites. This is what happens when you chum with third world and home grown Marxist muslim obamanites.

Bring in foreign nationals and ya bring in crime and corruption.

Like Canada, those running our government intentionally have left our borders unsecured for 40+ years. It’s sabotage against the people. That’s not enough, so they created chain immigration policies of sabotage. Intentional sabotage.
