In 1999, 200 children and teens were abducted by estranged parents in Ontario - four a week, according to this brochure. "Our longest recovery took 11 years." said Benson. "It was an interna tional parental abduction. A father had taken his son to the Middle East, to a country that had not signed the the Hague Convention (on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction of October 1980). "When this father showed up at the (Pearson) airport in November 2000. he was arrested." Child Find is able to cross interna tional borders through this Convention and its Missing posters. "These posters have become the global symbol of Child Find," said Benson. Add to this the fact its web set can be accessed worldwide at www.ontario.childfind.ca. Stranger abductions "throw every body into red alert," said Benson. "We notify the media . . . stranger abduction is the most dangerous to kids. "We work very closely with police when dealing with stranger abductions. In Ontario, we tracked 15 stranger abductions last year." Child Find, through some of its part ners, has "eyes and ears" in the commu nity, plus messengers. A new partnership formed about two weeks ago between Child Find Ontario and Atlas Van Lines, an Oakville-based trucking firm, has already resulted in a possible sighting, said Benson. It is believed Justin Pollari, 14, missing since Dec. 7, 2001 from the Sault Ste. Marie area, was seen at a truck stop along Hwy. 401. "Atlas has 160 van drivers, and we can call Atlas and they will send e-mail to every one o f their truckers using their satellite system, so all of them will have the information in minutes. We can alert them to keep an eye open."
