Romanian: Government Officials

Canada Dept: OTTAWA The hunt is on for 45 Romanian adults and children smuggled into Canada, according to The Chronicle Herald. Authorities have found 40 of them so far, and 30 of these were detained under new immigration law provisions that saw the entire group designated as part of an irregular arrival, which essentially means a human-smuggling operation and government officials said Wednesday the missing are among 85 people who entered the country illegally at intervals stretching back to February.
