UPDATE - RCMP TSUNAMI MISSING PERSONS TASK FORCE

News Release

February 22, 2005, Ottawa -- On January 2, 2005, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) established a Missing Persons Task Force at the request of Foreign Affairs Canada (FAC). The mandate of the task force is to assist in identifying Canadians reported missing as a result of the South Asian Tsunami disaster. All phone calls and e-mails received by the RCMP Missing Persons Task Force have now been acted on by the RCMP or FAC. The Task Force is in ongoing contact with the families of those believed to be missing as a result of the tsunami disaster. However, we will be discontinuing the Tip Line because we have not received any calls to it for some time now. If anyone has not yet reported a missing loved one, they are asked to contact FAC as soon as possible by phoning 1-800-387-3124 (in Ottawa, call 996-8885) or by sending an e-mail to sos@international.gc.ca. - 30 - For further information, please contact: RCMP Media Relations: (613) 993-2999.
