Many thanks to those in the Canadian Consular Service and the Department of Foreign Affairs for their work in supporting Tarek and John through their ordeal and securing their release.

 

Most importantly, thank you to the tireless work by Cecelia Greyson and Justin Pudor in spreading the word of their detainment and giving direction for those who wanted to lend their support.

 

Welcome home, Tarek and John.
