Amber Alert Success!

The power of social media is evident in so many ways. One often hears of the role played by Facebook in various uprisings and movements in undemocratic places. But it’s not just on a large-scale that the WWW can be of assistance.  In the  city of Trois-Rivières, between Montreal and Quebec City, a baby was abducted. An Amber Alert was issued and, using social media to spread a photo of the suspect, the baby has been found safe and sound!
