This is the result of not listening to subject matter experts, of wanting the result while throwing caution to the wind, failing due diligence.
The red tape cutters, the “we gotta move quicker” crowd, the magical thinkers.
Wasteful and irresponsible.

I’m missing something here.

The report states that 14 people were found in this van; 5 foreign nationals were turned over to the CBSA. So that leaves 9 unaccounted for without knowing if the driver(s) were included in the 14.
Are any in custody with the OPP?
