Montreal police say over $1 million worth of olive oil was stolen after a delivery involving two transport companies in the city never arrived at its destination in Ontario .
Police say Transport Q-Trans had a contract to deliver more than 100 palettes of olive oil to an Ontario client, which did not receive the shipment as expected earlier this week.
Police say Transport Q-Trans had transferred the product to a second company in Montreal it hired to complete the delivery because it had special heated trailers to store the olive oil.
