- Smugglers left the Patel family to cross the Canada-U.S. border on foot during a snowstorm in 2022. The family of four didn’t survive. Indian police say they know who planned the fatal border crossing. The Fifth Estate’s Steven D’Souza followed their trail from Gujarat, India, to a suburb in Canada.

The Canadian and American dream is gone. Everything is too expensive so don't risk your life for something that is no longer here
The dream is not gone at all. The fact that families risk their lives just for the chance to live here is proof that that dream is still alive. Remember to be grateful for where you live and have compassion for those who are not as lucky as we are.
Got quite a few wanting to go to Canada. I talk to people worldwide. Some were shocked when I told them about this whole situation.
@@ninjaweretiger4273 Tell them renting a one bedroom is min 1500 a month 3 bed is 2700-3500 plus water gas and hydro. Canada the opportunity is past. We will surely break into civil war and end poverty stricken
@sharonwade5989 the cost of living is highly dependent on where you live in Canada. It's a huge country. It doesn't cost near that much to rent in my area.
@@Littleone124 You must be from Manitoba...... gross. Lol jk

Definitely not the usual story. Most people would stay in their own countries with $100,000.
Doesn't make sense you're right.
At no point during the snow storm, none of the adults said this is not a good idea. Those smugglers valued money over lives. Heartless.
None of these adults thought it was a BAD BAD BAD time to sneak into Canada in desolate areas? The ONLY innocent people here are the children. The rest are ADULTS that decided this was a good idea in the middle of the winter. We all champions until the delusions are shattered by below zero temperatures..

All because of the comedian Trudeau gov.
Do not try cross borders illegally
..any borders in the world.
Nah thats how i got here and are rich
Depressing how people will understand the sentiment "I would die for my children" but suddenly don't understand why one would cross the border for their children.
you're a very nice person.
@RexOrbis Dying for your kids is a reaction to an immediate external force.
Proactively engaging in risky and illegal behaviour with your kids may be what people don't understand.
@@jvssocialmedia2459what is not understandable is taking you, an adult with a decent mind and thinking and your kids to an unlawful journey knowing death could result for you both. That’s parental irresponsibility and suicidal.
The love of money is the root of all evil.
Yes 😢😮 Exactly 💯
I dare say “The GREED for money or GREED itself is the root of all evil
And it's the children who are often hurt the most.😢😢😢

He did serious crimes in india, what ?????and he is living here in canada? why? how?
Canada loves to harbor anyone anti india
Authorities are NOT acting against them. That's why. Authorities don't care.
Trudeau

What about him?
The message is very simple: Don't try to cross the border.
In January, by foot
That is gross stupidity. That is the price of illegally crossing the border of another country.
I remember reading about this family when it happened and it was clear the family was not destitute and had decent lives in India. .... I'm glad you have tracked this down but the first killers are the parents who risked their beautiful little children for greed. Hopefully the smugglers will be jailed for the rest of their lives. ...good work, fifth estate.
Only greed
Exactly. Those babies didn't need to a be apart of such an uncertain situation. The dad should have left for this journey alone and brought the wife and the kids after he got situated. It was very careless of the parents to put those poor babies through such torture and their eventual demise.
I don't get their reasoning so maybe there's more to this than this program states.
One of them only got 3 years in prison.
When people choose to do illegal things, bad consequences are possible. Terrible choices can have terrible consequences.
Depressing how people will understand the sentiment "I would die for my children" but suddenly don't understand why one would cross the border for their children.
@@RexOrbis,
Don’t keep encouraging this illegal and deadly behaviour if you really want this to stop.
Well said. Too bad it is not a warning for the millions who will follow the same path in the near future.
Greed pushes people. These are not people who were suffering from poverty, those types have nothing so cannot find anyway to get a ticket out.

Does not make sense.
It should be life

@@JustMe-ew4rr Hmm. I am not sure if he knew that he would be smuggling humans to the States. It could be just picking some humans from across the border. Maybe I am wrong.
Unbelievable!!!!!
The right way is the safe way
I just don't understand how anyone would ever risk their lives to get INTO the US while fleeing Canada.
Greed!
I’m American and I would’ve stayed in Canada. The father had a job lined up in the United States I believe.
This is whats weird to me also. Canada is comparable to western EU countries, it's where you want to be when it comes to opportunities and social security.
@@Dovelunalovewdf job waiting 4 him and he would b illigal
Rather than be grateful for living in Canada, the adults pushed their luck with dire consequences.
You know what would have prevented this tragedy. Crossing legally.
That would have taken 25-30 years.
Or staying in Canada.
@@BrittMFH Not if you get a good education and the potential to get a good job…….
People are too lazy and entitled, expecting everything for nothing!!
Depressing how people will understand the sentiment "I would die for my children" but suddenly don't understand why one would cross the border for their children.
@@Sassy-Sam Most of these people do not even have high school education.
If you "want the best" for your children. You choose LIFE! My heart breaks over the unnecessary loss of life. It was the parents decision that caused their demise.
Just because you want to give your family a better future does not give you the right to enter a country illegally.
Oh cop on.
Then go back to Europe
Let me preface my post by writing this is nothing short of tragic. Unnecessary deaths, imo. However, I do have a question. If a family can gather 100,000 CAD to hire someone to illegally smuggle their family member from India to the US, why not stay in India? If you convert the CAD to Rupees, you have slightly over 6,180,000. Doesn't that make an India national a multi-millionaire? Maybe money doesn't work that way in India? Make it make sense.
Borrowed money?
Greed by everyone?
Greed
I was thinking the exact same thing
@@dinkster1729yeah, but not the whole 100k.
As a middle class family in India what opportunities would the children be lacking?
All of the highest paying STEM jobs have are over there now
Don't cross borders illegally anywhere in the world. When you make that decision, whatever happens is your own fault. Life abroad is not as rosy as it seems and includes a lot of struggle. Some succeed but the majority fail and spend their life doing low paying jobs in bad conditions. You atleast have your family for support back home.
Wyt man and their imaginary lines! Animals and birds can cross your imaginary lines but humans cannot😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@mentuhotepii2641 yes
At least don’t do it when it’s -30C. This was totally on the parents. Poor kids!
Low paying jobs in America are considered a lot of money in other countries.
@@ceejaf1so am I supposed to care? Mass deportation coming. Trump ❤️ MAGA
$100,000 would've made the Patel's life content and comfortable.
100,000 would make many Canadians who have lived here all their lives comfortable.
The thought that bothers me the most is - That dreadful night only 2 little souls didn't have any choice to make a decision of their own. The decision to live
The first family thought it was a wonderful thing to teach their children how to break the law. Nature is unforgiving.
And indiscriminant
Kids r Innocent
Exactly!!! @@Sthmohtwenty
Breaking the law has its consequences to anyone entering a country illegally. The smugglers and families that do this are violating the law.
Darwin Award achieved!
Very good investigative journalism.
Hard to understand how those children died slowly and painful smh
Yes, oh my God, cannot even let my heart go there, poor beautiful babies 😢
If you have 100k to spend on going to America, then it sounds like you’re already doing very well for yourself in Canada. Why not just stay there? I don’t get it!
With 100000 in cash I'll move out here .
If you’ve got $100k in india then why go to Canada .
its loans not their actual money
Yes I feel sorry for the family and my condolences for them however as someone we was born and raised here my grandparents came here legally because of the laws and how when you enter a new country you follow the rules. When you do things illegally don’t be surprised when bad decisions happen. Yes I think the people who dropped them off should be in jail for life however two adults made the decision to leave their country.
And risk their children's lives. We have enough stupid people here.
Well written
As a husband and father.....id never lead my family to their demise like that
There should be a petition to pressure the government to arrest these monsters
Very sad. But the father should not have put his family at such high risk of loss of life of his family. Taking short cuts is full of risks. There are now many more opportunities in Gujarat or other states of India. With google anyone can find out about the weather and the clothes you need to survive in such weather.
Risking your own life is one thing, but risking your Babies Lives is a whole other thing. Selfish is the word that comes to my mind.
Imagine all selfish people coming to US.
The guy that drove them to the boarder is still walking free, living in his fancy big house and driving some really nice cars. As for the family, you made it to Canada, why not stay there and make life there. So sad
Or at least wait til freakin' Spring!!!
The word illegally was missing from the headline of this story. Play stupid games earn stupid prizes. I feel bad for the kids that paid for their parents bad decision
Depressing how people will understand the sentiment "I would die for my children" but suddenly don't understand why one would cross the border for their children.
but try to understand our point of view!! Think like this like u can only afford food nothing else no education no medicine and then you get a instant shortcut by which you can have all that and even have a refrigerator a.c. t.v. car etc even your own home won't you get greedy too? Imagine living on streets or small house in slum for a decade and then you get a option!! We all are humans we all want a good life
@@shashankdixit8949 well kiddo again, play stupid games win stupid prizes
Don’t make illegal and deadly choices for your entire family and this won’t be the outcome.
Very tragic but I think these problems wouldn't be so rampant if not forCanada's international reputation as a generous welfare state with porous borders.
Perhaps an internet check on Canada's harsh winters before venturing out.
We hear so much about America's Southern Border but hardly anything about our Northern Border...Thank you for sharing this story...
Fenil Patel looks like he's WELL SETTLED with a huge expensive house and luxury cars with his human trafficking business.
This was avoidable
How people can start their professional career without proper emigration papers? Bank, real estate...school...
by working illegally for nothing and not paying taxes.
Why do some illegals get so much free stuff then some dont
It widely believed around the world that as soon as you enter the USA, it starts raining money, also money grows in the trees and also there is so much money that u can scoop the remainders from the streets, the garbage bins are full of good food as much is discarded when is past the due date but still good. Plus the gov. Toss money all the time and there is free food, free clothes and much more.😂
Doing dead end jobs
Your government provides those documents for a cash cut
Encouraging people to cross illegally is the fault of the government who encourages this and the families that choose to break the law to enter a country illegally. Canada and the united states have legal ways to apply for residency. Tragic choices all around.
Exactly.
You acknowledge that both Canada and the US have legal ways to provide for residency.
So whatever makes you think that either government is at fault for “encouraging “ people to cross illegally? That puzzles me. And for that I am I would love to hear your thoughts.
What am I missing?
@@pattiquinn9619 exactly
How does the government encourage this? You choose to cross the border illegally you deal with what comes with it.
@@girvanherman7939yup
No matter what anyone thinks here, the fact is that a family of 4 lost their lives. So very sad! 😔 Excellent reporting btw! 👏👏
True, but look out the whole picture , nothing has changed. People from india are still doing it more than before, probably when you deal with illegal matters you should be aware of the consequences, people now in days that's the last thing people want to hear
Two things can be true at once.
The father didn’t feel the same way you do…..
I have zero sympathy for his ilk.
Any illegal crossing is still illegal. Everyone gets upset about terrorist attacks and turns around and sympathizes with stories like this. Truly ridiculous
But the weather! Why try this in JANUARY! The parents, when the flight landed from India, have to know it's too COLD for this type of travel. And unsafe to even travel by vehicle in a SNOW STORM!!!
God gave us a brain to decide. When its lightening, I remain inside. When its wintry weather I stay at home. We are accountable for our own decisions. Why has accountability seemed to have transitioned to everybody else? I do not know the back story to this however, why did this family not remain at their home and travel in summer? With technology, there is no excuse as to watch weather etc before travelling. Common sense is to not travel thru Canada during winter.
A very avoidable tragedy
Thank you Fifth Estate for the great investigation!
45 months for human smuggling a joke
Total BS! Arrest the man and put him in a Canadian prison! Sad that parents made a poor decision to put their 2 children, who had no choice in the matter, in harms way! No one should try to cross our borders illegally!!
No choice? Im not following that logic

@@BCJDM”Entering what”?… Isn’t it obvious?… Entering the U.S. of course!
The fault is with the parents who decided to do something illegal. I know this is unpopular but true.
Okay, let me get this right, there was a man at the head of that household. And he didn’t think this wasn’t a good thing for his immediate family. It didn’t click that this was dangerous. He was the head of that family. He failed his family miserably
What a beautiful family. Such a terrible loss. I live in Manitoba. To drop them off in those kinds of conditions was an automatic death sentence.

@@lwfozzy6925 The children most definitely are, yes.
It's nobody's fault but, the Patel's. Their intentions were to enter the country illegally instead of doing the paperwork to enter legally....
and wait more that 30 years to be approved
Too bad, long wait times doesn't justify putting your family in such imminent danger. Let alone committing a federal crime of crossing a border illegally, seriously no one has any morals anymore it seems with all the excuse making for these stupid parents.
Meanwhile in the US Southern border........
Exactly! Pray for USA.
It is all by design. The US Government allows this to happen.
Sad for the loss BUT don't try to cross the boader ILLEGALLY dont die !!!!

These children are just beautiful. Mom appears to be very affectionate with them in the photos. Even dad seems to be proud of his family. This just didn’t need to happen. Greed got the better of dad and maybe even mom, too. Don’t know, but such a waste of beautiful lives.

Throw him into the prison. Kudos to the 5th estate. These guys are bane to both our countries
DRIVING A MERCEDES AND LIVING IN A BRICK HOUSE....IN CANADA....
Very sad, those two kids were just gorgeous.
Im Australian and we have a lot of people constantly trying to sneak into the country through smugglers, its a very sad situation, as it stands right now Australia is in a very bad cost of living crisis but even worse is the shortage of housing issues, unfortunately because of this housing issue even our own naturally born citizens are being forced to live in cars or on the streets the very last thing we need right now is more immigrants or illegal immigrants or even asylum seekers, i wish we could help everyone but we just dont have the infrastructure, enough housing, our health care system is under strain im guessing that's what some od the issue is in the US. Idk
The same is very, very true here in the US. With land border crossings being overrun with literally thousands of illegal immigrants daily, the US is at crisis - we cannot afford to support these people. We have this AHAR report (from HUD) revealed that 653,104 people nationwide were homeless, defined by the agency as lacking a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence. That number reflects an increase of 70,642 people over 2022 - a 12 percent jump in one year.
Same problem in the US illegals crossing the border. :(
Same in USA. 😢
This, along with the cost of living crisis and housing shortages, it's all manufactured. There's an economic war being waged against the West, and sadly, many are either choosing to ignore it or are outright in denial.
Knowledge is power, so stay strong, knowing that good can, and will, prevail over evil.
Love, from Canada.

The person who did that to send the Patel family in the cold snow storm intended to have them die .The smugglers wanted money and had no way to get the family through. Bunch of money thirsty smugglers
The man and the father should have taken this risk alone and upon success he could bring his family later!
The smuggler appears to be fairly young yet has a big 3,000 sq foot home with expensive cars why doesn’t the government investigate where he got all that money ?
He doesn’t appear to have a regular job and 5 will get you 10 he claims poor every year on his income tax so as not to pay any tax .
Come on Canada don’t let people walk all over you
Same happens in the USA
My wife lived in poverty in a poor country until she married me; now she has everything, mainly through her own efforts.

I remember this case. Thank you for this video.
Thats why you don't cross illegally to begin with.
Why didn't you give the all the details and proofs of the smuggler to Toronto Police soon after you reached the suspect at his home?...The police can't do anything to arrest him?
if he gets caught dropping off people at the border, that should be a good evidence to get him arrested.
Because it’s fake, not a real suspect just a paid actor

Lots of us cannot afford housing and go without healthcare and skip meals. And an education? Well that’s considered a luxury where I live unless you qualify for assistance or apply for loans that take decades to pay off. There are no shortcuts. Someone has to pay for that. These people paid with their life unfortunately.
@@shashankdixit8949 Oh ffs! Stop cutting and pasting this ignorant bs under every comment.
You can't be serious, you have no idea what you're talking about. So many American families live in poverty, living without food/shelter/basic needs. Educate yourself not everyone in North America have everything to meet their basic needs.
This family outsmarted themselves and ended up paying the ultimate price! I only feel sorry for their innocent children!
It is not a tragic journey, but greedy, irresponsible and illegal. The only tragedy for me is the untimely death of two kids. Kids parents must be charged as homicide culprits for murdering two kids.
Your grandmother came on a boat also
The parents are dead as well. You can’t charge dead people.
Depressing how people will understand the sentiment "I would die for my children" but suddenly don't understand why one would cross the border for their children.
@RexOrbis yeah greeds a huge motivator in this story
Obviously you are in a very comfortable place with all your needs met!… you can not understand poverty if u have had a comfortable life!…
Why do people enter a country illegally and not know things such as weather, culture, economy and employment? People must understand and be careful. What your running to may be worst than what you are running from....
I do strongly believe people have to take much responsibility for their extremely poor decisions. Parents taking such risk with young children is absolutely crazy..
Consequences for your actions!!!
cross legally at a border crossing, how about.
Fennel patel is liviñg lavishly off peoples 100,000 thousand dollars
While people left in the middle of nowhere froze to death
Is it Freedom or Greed that motivates people. There's a price to pay for both and your life is more valuable than money.
45 months in jail only!? such a joke
Very sad story and a rivetting investigation
This is tragic. Man, I feel so bad for the children. Children deserve to be happy. That's what childhood is for.
Come legally!

Good job Indian police and CBC
You should be ashamed of yourself for saying “good job” to CBC. You bring shame to your family from supporting a network who doesn’t recognize free speech.
Fifth Estate has been doing some amazing work lately.
Maybe this family man was going to the US to be a trusted contact for his brother's/family's business.
How can Fenil Patel walk so freely. We can see he has his family in the video as well. He led beautiful family to tragic moment just to live his own life luxuriously look at his house. These kind of people ruin the reputation of South Asia. Shame on this guy hopefully he gets punished for his doing-
Are you saying South Asia has a good reputation? It doesn't.
His Mercedez SUV alone costs approx 80 thousand dollars. He should be investigated and put behind bars forever.
