There's not much you can do about it.
He did filed a missing person report and as a result, the RCMP issued a Canada wide arrest warrent for the woman. You're dealing with a nation of 25 million people. Did you expect to be able actually track down someone within that country? Or even worse, track down that same person in a nation of even more people? And add that equation to the fact that the chances of finding a abducted person ever being found were pretty slim.
Do yourself a favour...google the net and find how many abduction and kidnapping that had a good ending. Now google the net and find out how many didn't. I will bet you a million buck that a lot of abduction case that didn't have a good ending outnumbers those that did.
Edit: Now consider the fact that 14 years ago, the media coverage of any abduction is not even anywhere near as powerful as it is today. Amber alert sure didn't exist back then. The internet existed back then but wasn't nowhere near as powerful as it is today. Media today are used to help inform people of an abduction that occurs and that is clearly shown in Samantha Smart case. She was found because some people who watched the news recongize her. If that 3 yrs old boy were walking on the same street as Samantha Smart were, nobody would recongize him...especially he was from another country.
