Manitoba RCMP were tipped off of the transport on Tuesday afternoon and arrested the woman. She was travelling with two children and an infant at the time.
Police seized a quantity of marijuana, including some that had been wrapped in an open package of baby wipes and stored in a child’s pink backpack.
The woman was charged with possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking and released. She will appear in Poplar Court court on January 14.
