Drug runner? Arms dealer? The Adeline-C made waves in Halifax and beyond

The Adeline-C, a ship that landed in Halifax in 1981 with high-tech gear, was eventually linked to a massive U.S. drug smuggling operation valued at $200 million. Initially abandoned by its crew, the vessel remained a mystery until years later when its role in the illicit trade was uncovered. This incident highlights the complex international criminal networks that operate across borders and underscores the lengths to which drug smuggling operations will go to evade authorities.
