Nine women from Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and B.C. have now been released from the crowded prison camps for ISIS suspects in Syria.
Two Edmonton women were returning to Canada on Thursday after the government facilitated their release from a prison camp for ISIS suspects caught in Syria.

The women are believed to be Helena Carson and Dina Kalouti, a mother of three.
