For the last seven-and-half months, Toronto resident Heather McArthur has been living out what she describes as her “worst nightmare.”
On Feb. 7, her then three-year-old son Jacob along with his father Loc Phu "Jay" Le departed for what was supposed to be a week-long visit to Vietnam to celebrate the Lunar New Year with family, McArthur says.
“So obviously, when there's multiple parties that have cut off communication, you know, that intermediary party is a three-year-old child, you know, that's gets really concerning,” she said. “And then there's lots of other red flags when you look in hindsight about behavior, the communication prior to the trip, even the communication with his counsel, all of those things really have should have been going really smoothly because they're really just factual information sharing between parents.
McArthur said the situation has been made even more challenging by the fact that Vietnam does not have similar parental abduction laws in place as Canada.
