The Canada Border Services Agency said it has seized more than $400,000 worth of cocaine hidden in shoes being transported into Canada at the Pearson International Airport.

The agency said the traveller caught with the 3.5 kilograms of drugs was arriving from Guyana, but told The Epoch Times in an email it could not disclose the individual’s citizenship due to the Privacy Act. The street value of the drugs has been estimated at $437,000.
