Two residents are facing a slew of charges after Royal Canadian Mounted Police say they discovered an illegal marijuana shop inside a home in Flin Flon.
Police said an ongoing investigation led them to raid the Princess Boulevard home on April 30, during which they found more than $430,000 worth of illegal cannabis products, including dried cannabis, gummies, infused chocolate bars and various extracts, resins and other cannabis derivatives.
Police say none of the seized cannabis products had the correct Manitoba tax stamps.
Police also seized 25 guns from Flin Flon's home.
