Quebec: Paul Tear

Quebec Dept: Border agents could only watch as the van disappeared into Quebec. But the vehicle and its occupants didn't try to disappear, according to Montreal Gazette. "It's as though they had it programmed into their GPS," said Magog police spokesman Paul Tear and dERBY LINE, Vt. - A Dodge Caravan with California license plates and a dozen passengers zipped across the border between Vermont and Quebec in October, heading north in a southbound lane unblocked by traffic. About 22 miles later, they stopped in a Wal-Mart parking lot in Magog, Quebec, and asked someone to call the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. When the Mounties arrived, the Gypsy occupants of the vehicle applied for political asylum. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
