Florida man charged in Canada-U.S. human-smuggling scheme at Manitoba border to be released from custody.

Steve Shand is accused of human smuggling after seven people were picked up just south of the U.S. border on Wednesday. Four others, who were believed to be with the group, were found dead in a field in Manitoba.

U.S. District Court Magistrate Judge Hildy Bowbeer said she believes these conditions will assure his appearance in court, and the safety of the community. Four people, including an infant, were found dead in a Manitoba field near the Canada-U.S. border on Wednesday. A U.S. Homeland Security agent believes they may have been victims of a wider human smuggling operation.

Investigators believe they were part of a larger group of Indian migrants who were trying to get into the U.S. by way of Canada. During the 20-minute appearance, Shand also waived his right to a preliminary hearing, which would assess whether there's probable cause.The four bodies were found Wednesday, shortly after U.S. Border Patrol agents pulled over a passenger van on the American side and found two other undocumented Indian nationals inside.

Shand "was encountered driving in a rural area on a dirt road in an area far away from any services, homes or ports of entry into Canada," U.S. court documents say.

Ukrainian communities watch, wonder how far Canada will go to protect their ancestral homelandPrime Minister Justin Trudeau this week pledged Canadian support for Ukraine and said he feared Russia’s potential plans for armed conflict. I think you meant to say 'Ukrainian communities watch, wonder how far Canada will go to protect *the fascist regime in* their ancestral homeland' Shouldn’t have cancelled those F-35 contracts. Can do almost nothing. Canada has enough problems at home and can't afford to send money anywhere. It's up to the Ukrainians to look after themselves.
