Ottawa Now - Canadian tourists in Mexico urged to seek shelter as violence runs rampant

February 23, 2026

Canadians who are vacationing and living in parts of Mexico have been urgently ordered to shelter in place.

It follows the demise of a major Mexican drug cartel leader, who was reportedly killed in a government operation just days ago. And now, a wave of violence has engulfed the area. Kristy Cameron checks in with Debbie Parrish-Lefort, a concerned Ottawa resident who finds herself waiting in limbo.
