In the days after the brazen April 2023 robbery at Pearson Airport, Peel Police canvassed 225 homes and businesses, looking for security camera footage, hoping to trace the path of the white five-ton truck that had ferried away the palette of gold bars.
Investigators ultimately determined the truck travelled west from the Air Canada Cargo terminal, taking the 401 Highway, exiting about 30 minutes away in Milton, Ont.
With the white truck serving as a backdrop, a procession of politicians, police chiefs and detectives came to the podium to laud their success, and hammer home a simple narrative.
“If you want to bring a large number of guns from the United States into Canada, there are better ways to do it than by staging a spectacular airport gold heist that’s going to have multiple law enforcement agencies hunting for you very aggressively,” said Soud.
The force turned down an interview request from CBC News, and declined to provide answers to written questions, citing concern for court proceedings and their ongoing investigation.
Andrea Wenckebach, a goldsmith who teaches jewelry design at Georgian College in Barrie, Ont., says melting down precious metals by hand is hard, and dirty, work.
