WebPosted Aug 11 1999 2:17 PM PDT

VANCOUVER - RCMP officials are reporting they have seized the mystery ship off the Queen Charlotte Islands.

Immigration Minister Elinor Caplan says there's about 100 migrants aboard the ship. She told an Ottawa news conference that the people the ship was carrying are on a beach -- the captain and crew are still on board.

Caplan also said it might be time to review legislation dealing with migrants coming to Canada.
