The release further added that Canadian citizens have been injured in the recent terror attacks in Mumbai. "We have been able to confirm that two Canadians have been injured in these attacks. Because of privacy considerations, no other information can be released at this time," said Lawrence Cannon, Minister of Foreign Affairs in the release.
