When somebody dropped off a box of clothing at a thrift store in Surrey, B.C., this summer, they left behind more than they expected.
An employee sifting through the box at the store in the 10600-block of King George Boulevard would later find a "substantial amount" of cash inside, according to RCMP.
Suspecting it had been included in the drop-off by mistake, the staff member turned the money over to police.
Officers are now trying to track down its owner.
"If you can positively identify the amount of cash, denominations and what the money was stored in, please contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502," read a statement Wednesday.
It's believed the box was likely donated between July 1 and July 15.
Intelligence regarding foreign interference sometimes didn't make it to the prime minister's desk in 2021 because Canada's spy agency and the prime minister's national security adviser didn't always see eye to eye on the nature of the threat, according to a recent report from one of Canada's intelligence watchdogs.
