Police are trying to determine the scope of a major drug seizure in Mississauga as they carefully dismantle a suspected methamphetamine laboratory.
Following a raid in an industrial area, police say they discovered 80 drums of unknown chemicals, numerous presses and an "enormous amount of ecstasy" pills. Staff Inspector Don Campbell says police will take several days to "neutralize" the volatile site which could spark a fire or explosion.
Campbell says the lab is the work of a "sophisticated organization" and is the largest one he's ever seen.
He says it's not clear if the drugs were destined for the Toronto area or were intended to be exported.
Four people have been arrested and charged with conspiracy.
