RCMP said the four men were arrested after a traffic stop where police found 14 prohibited devices and nine firearms.
RCMP began the "complex investigation" with the Canada Border Services Agency on June 10 when a man was spotted carrying a duffle bag after getting off a boat close to Glen Walter—roughly 10 kilometres east of Cornwall. After leaving the boat, the man entered a vehicle.
The three men from Ottawa are all 20-years-old and the Toronto man is 23. They are facing 92 charges including possession of a firearm without a licence, importing a firearm knowing it is unauthorized, unauthorized possession of a firearm in a motor vehicle and possession of a prohibited device. Additional charges include smuggling which falls under the Customs Act.
The men have been released on bail and are awaiting future court dates.
