Montreal police were informed the teens were missing by their families two days after they took a plane to Turkey, according to the Rad-Can report.

A Laval police spokesperson said the files on the missing teens have been handed over to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

The RCMP would not comment, the report said.
