Two northern Alberta residents face drug and weapons charges after RCMP seized cocaine, methamphetamine, Canadian currency and a replica handgun during a traffic stop near Onoway on Dec. 18. The community is about an hour northwest of Edmonton.

RCMP officers were patrolling the area when they found a vehicle they considered suspicious. They stopped it and searched it, locating the drugs, cash and replica firearm. The vehicle’s two occupants were arrested.

The accused are a 33-year-old woman from Whitecourt and a 33-year-old man from Fox Creek. Both face a variety of drug and weapons offences, and the woman has also been charged with additional offences. The source report does not specify the charges.

Both were released on a court undertaking. They are scheduled to make their next court appearance at the Alberta Court of Justice in St. Albert on March 25, 2026.
