I want to commend the Toronto Police Service for their work in apprehending this individual and thank Canadians for their ongoing support of our efforts to find individuals who are hiding in Canada and committing serious crimes.
The Government of Canada remains committed to identifying, detaining and removing those individuals who pose a threat to the safety and security risk to Canada.”
