NORTH PORTAL — The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) seized a prohibited weapon and over-capacity magazines at the North Portal port of entry, according to a post made on their X account on March 21.

Officers seized one undeclared prohibited handgun, 22 over-capacity rifle magazines and one over-capacity handgun magazine from two travellers. The two people were fined and returned to the U.S.

The CBSA is reminding travellers entering the country to make sure they have the information they need before attempting to import items into Canada to avoid the possibility of penalties, including fines, seizure or prosecution.
