Canada has disrupted an attempt to send materials to Russia in violation of sanctions imposed following the invasion of Ukraine, an official said Tuesday.
Border officers in Montreal seized the shipment, described as “dual-use goods” banned from export to Russia under Canada’s sanctions regime.
The shipment was one of more than a dozen with “suspected links to Russian entities” that the Canada Border Services Agency said had resulted in action.
The CBSA initially said it was the only seizure it could confirm under Ukraine-related sanctions, but later said it was the only one it could release details about.
