    Episode 12: Illegal Tabacco

    Buying and selling illegal tobacco is a crime in Canada and a significant money-making enterprise for organized crime.  It is estimated the Government of Canada loses about $1 billion in tax revenue each year due to illegal cigarette sales, while provinces lose millions in revenue. Our guest on this episode is retired Winnipeg Police Officer - Ron Bell.  After 30 years with the WPS, Ron went on to work with the Province of Manitoba as the Manager of the special investigation unit - Taxation. Most recently though, he has moved over to the private sector and is currently working as a consultant specializing in illicit trade prevention while educating & training law enforcement.  Ron provides incredible insight into the growing problem of illegal tobacco/contraband cigarettes in Manitoba & how Crime Stoppers plays a valuable role.  If you have any information regarding criminal activity or wish to check on the status of your tip, please contact us at 1-800-222-8477 or send an anonymous tip online on our website.

    Episode 6: Save Your CAT

    In 2021 Catalytic Converters replaced liquor as the most stolen property - a trend that continued into 2022 where they were crowned “the most stolen property in the city”. However, the number of Catalytic Converters have dropped. Police say this is because of efforts being made by WPS, Manitoba Justice and Crime Stoppers to help decrease the thefts. With funding made available from Criminal Property Forfeiture, Crime Stoppers launched an engraving initiative called "Save Your CAT". You can find a list of participating businesses online at SaveYourCAT.ca Special Guest on this episode... Retired WPS Officer & Former Winnipeg Crime Stopper Chair - Paul Johnson.
