LESSONS LEARNED: HOW FENTANYL IS IMPACTING ORGANIZED CRIME IN NORTH AMERICA

Résumé

On November 15, 2023, Victoria Dittmar presented Lessons Learned: How Fentanyl is Impacting Organized Crime in North America for this year’s West Coast Security Conference. The presentation was followed by a question-and-answer period with questions from the audience and CASIS Vancouver executives. The key points discussed were how fentanyl is changing how law enforcement agencies in North America deal with drug trafficking, that fentanyl is a minuscule market and overlaps with legal markets, and that the drug has become democratized with cartels playing only a limited role.
