Under the federal Public Transit Infrastructure Fund, Canada will be providing nearly $23.7 million, while the Quebec will be contributing more than $18.9 million.

BARRY A man and woman from eastern Chomedey who were unjustly subjected to the first criminal charges ever under a federal “anti slavery” law say they now feel vindicated by the prosecu- tion’s failure to prove its case, as well as by a successful lawsuit they won against the RCMP with a judgment amounting to around $700,000. Their reputation suffered The case against Nichan Manoukian and his wife Manoudshag Saryboyajian dates back to January 2006 when officers from the RCMP, the Canada Border Services Agency as well as from the Laval Police Department raided their home. In 2007, they were charged in the first case of human trafficking and exploitation in Canada. Although the accusations were judged to be baseless and were dropped within six months, the ordeal had important repercussions on the health and reputation of the entire family, according to Berge Manoukian, Nichan Manoukian’s son. ‘We’re here for the slave you’ve been keeping,’ the police “Sunny,” the Manoukian/Saryboyajian family’s domestic worker, is seen third from the left in this photo, with other family members, officer said as they taken at their former home in Lebanon.
