They're picking on these women, they're picking on the wrong people.

We've talked to lots of people who were at the hotel and nobody was questioned -- either there or at the airport or when they got back to Thunder Bay.

In my community, women are as important as males, and they are playing an equal role in the society.

It is preposterous to think that they could be involved in any kind of criminality. They have not had so much as a speeding ticket in their lives.

We hope this will be discussed between them.

They're not cleared, but they did go voluntarily and give statements to Thunder Bay police.
