CFSEU-BC is tasked to expose, investigate, prosecute, dismantle, and disrupt organized criminal enterprises. The second mandate is to share intelligence with partners and to cooperate with, and assist other organized crime enforcement units at the national and international levels.[2]

History

edit

It was established in 2004 to facilitate the disruption and suppression of organized crime in BC and to support municipal police departments when public safety is deemed to be a priority.

CFSEU-BC had undergone undercover operations, seized firearms, illegal drugs, cash and provided support in the rescue of Graham McMynn, son of businessman Robert McMynn.[3]

In June 2026, the unit was involved in anti-drug investigations on a group that operated throughout BC.[4]

Organization

edit

The CFSEU-BC is modelled after other CFSEU units across the country and is currently staffed by RCMP officers and seconded officers from all 12 municipal police forces in British Columbia and Metro Vancouver Transit Police.[5]

The Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General is in charge of the unit.[6]
