They certainly could have gotten a warrant to search the cars for those envelopes and their contents. But you're right, warrants are very specific - and by the time they got one based on their observations of the covert exchanges, one would assume the envelopes would have been gone.
Mmm, I'll let a lawyer correct me here but if they are observing a potential criminal act in person, they don't need a warrant; that's probable cause. Is a known drug dealer leaving a mysterious envelope in Rob's car probable cause? I suspect it is but I don't know what the threshold is for cops to move in on a suspected drug deal; maybe it needs to be a hand-to-hand exchange?
As for Ghomeshi, I think it's a safe bet Rob Ford has nothing to do with it. Donovan is their best investigative reporter and that suggests some interesting things about where the Ghomeshi story is going....but Fordland is unlikely to be it.
EDIT: I see that base is now well-covered Yeah, what Jimmi said about women seems to be the prevailing rumour but the details, that no one seems to know so far.
