Readers searched the Snopes website and emailed to verify the rumor that ICE agents detained Warner and her child. We reached out via email to Global Affairs Canada to inquire as to Tania Warner's case. We attempted to reach Edward Warner but have not, as of this writing, received any response. Heather Fleck, Tania Warner's mother, told CTV News that Ayla was "on the spectrum," and that "this is going to be devastating." Posts from Tania Warner's Facebook page also indicate she is the parent of a child with autism.
