Police said “kilogram quantities of cocaine,” methamphetamine tablets and cannabis were seized in the operations.
Also seized were two “assault style” rifles, a shotgun and a handgun, trafficking paraphernalia including a hydraulic press, scales and packaging materials, plus cash.
Three Ottawa men ranging in age from 29 to 33 were charged with trafficking, and possession of proceeds of crime over $5,000. A 39-year-old Gatineau/Chapeau man is to appear in court at a future date on similar charges.
All drugs seized are still to be analyzed by Health Canada.
The investigation is ongoing, police said, and more people could be charged.
