Sherbrooke Police Service and the Terrebonne Police Service are also involved in the operation, SQ added.
The raids stem from an investigation that began in July, and are mainly targeting residences, storage buildings and vehicles used by members of a network allegedly behind a drug trafficking and synthetic drug production operation in the targeted cities, SQ said.
It did not name the network, nor share any other information.
The investigation is ongoing.
