[the underground chemist Beeker] says police are far behind when it comes to tracking drugs throughout the province, and he says many local chemists are synthesizing drugs with materials ordered from China.
“I’m smarter than they are ... all of us chemists are smarter than the police, and we’re gonna stay ahead of them,” he coldly tells filmmaker Robert Osborne. "And if they find out one of the ones we are making, we’ll make a different one — and this will go on forever."
Recent news does seem to prove him right: even deadlier opioids have already hit the streets in Vancouver. #Carfentanil has turned up in several instances, according to Vancouver police — and it’s 100 times more potent than #fentanyl.
Deadly carfentanil worries health officials
“Fentanyl is soon to be obsolete. It’s just not going to be out there because there’s much more profitable drugs — it doesn’t matter about better or safer — much more profitable drugs and molecules are on the way,” Beeker says in the film.
“They’re in the mail right now.”
