Thank you very much for your question.
The district of Sparwood, where Kienan was taken from, is a community of 3,800 people who for the most part, like members of most small communities in Canada, understand who is in their neighbourhood and leave their doors and vehicles, etc., unlocked.
Since that event in September 2011, that community has changed. They are much more aware of the circumstances around them on a daily basis. People now drive their kids to school more than they did before. They are much more attuned to locking their doors at night, whether it be their vehicles and/or their residences. They are much more attuned to those who are not familiar to the community, and the police have found that many more calls are being brought to their attention about strangers to the community.
From that perspective, the community has lived in fear to some degree. To bring it one step further, the alleged kidnapper in this case is from the community. We never thought someone from within would do that, and as a result when that did happen, it brought another obstacle to the community—what do we do when it is someone from within whom we know very well, who was born and raised in the community, and who will come back to the community? What do we tell our children about that person?
