I think this is a highly organized abduction. There would have been a period of surveillance and they would have realized exactly where they were going to kidnap this person.

It has been on the stocks for several years, and originally it was conceived as a 20-screen cinema, but the bottom fell out of the cinema market and the casino issue raised its head at the same time.

In the long run I think it will hurt parents.

It's just the same as any Canadian citizen that's gone missing in another country. They will monitor the investigation from the police in Italy and then really it's a case of seeing what happens next.

It sounds like it was a random criminal action because there was an individual who used his credit cards, which is not really the action of somebody who has actually targeted someone in terms of kidnapping.

But, people are recognizing me more. Sometimes fans just approach me on the street and say how much they love the show. It's great to get that kind of feedback.
