From the Calgary Herald:

This was a record seizure for us," said Insp. Rob Williams. "We (have) 38 bricks of cocaine, each weighing in excess of a kilogram." The drugs were likely destined for sale in southern Alberta, Williams said.

It is estimated that 200 kilograms of cocaine pass through Calgary every week.
So they seized about 40 kilograms, or less than 25% of the weekly cocaine traffic, and it took a 4 month long sting to do it? Doesn't sound like they are too much on top of things, judging from those numbers...
