A case of Kraft Dinner was seized by police and the boxes had bags inside with about 480 grams of "illicit dried cannabis."

After the discovery was made, three people were arrested and charged with multiple offences in connection with the drug bust.

RCMP said "possessing illicit cannabis is still a criminal offence" and the drugs are often associated with organized crime but "anyone abiding by the laws governing recreational cannabis use is not subject to enforcement."
