Minister Day comments on dismantling of international child porn ring

News Release

February 8, 2007 — Today, the Honourable Stockwell Day released the following statement in response to news that Austrian authorities have announced they have uncovered a large international Internet child pornography ring. “The sexual exploitation of children is a vile and abhorrent act, for which Canadians have zero tolerance. I can assure Canadians that our security forces will make every effort to ensure that our children are protected. I would like to take this opportunity to commend the Austrian authorities for striking a blow against child pornography. While it is yet to be confirmed if any offences have been committed in Canada, proper authorities are working to gather more information. The National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre – a part of the RCMP’s National Police Services - will play a key role in helping to identify the appropriate jurisdiction to pursue investigations, if they are warranted. I would like to commend the National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre and the entire law enforcement community for all that they do to prevent the abduction, endangerment and sexual exploitation of children.” For further information: Mélisa LeclercDirector of CommunicationsOffice of the Honourable Stockwell DayMinister of Public Safety613-991-2863
