Two people are facing charges after police seized tens of thousands of dollars worth of drugs, cash, and guns from homes in southeast Calgary.
Calgary police say the three-month investigation began in June 2026 after information from two overdose deaths pointed officers to a suspected drug traffickers.
On Aug. 31, officers arrested the suspect after seeing activity consistent with drug trafficking. Search warrants were then carried out at homes in Auburn Bay and McKenzie Lake that investigators believe were connected to the suspect’s operation.
As officers were ready to search the Auburn Bay home, they saw a woman removing items. She was arrested after officers found evidence tied to drug trafficking.
During the search of the homes officers seized:

- Three firearms (one rifle, two shotguns), six magazines and 148 rounds of ammunition

- 569 g of psilocybin
- 207 g of methamphetamine
- 593 codeine pills
- 127 Adderall pills
- 49 LSD tabs
- Seven morphine pills
- 6,200 contraband cigarettes
- Drug‑trafficking tools such as scales, packaging and a vacuum sealer
- Electronic devices and documents
- 11 kg of unknown powder, now being tested
Ryan Allan Sinclair, 34, is accused of trafficking‑related offences, fraud over $5,000, possessing crime proceeds, and unsafe firearm and ammunition storage. Brigitte Conchita Peters‑Palma, 34, faces four trafficking‑related charges.
Sinclair remains in custody, and both are scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday.
