Where Lucas and China were found murdered to Alaska is well over a thousand miles.

Alaska/USA border is less than 700 miles from Liard Hot Springs. Vancouver is 1900km, so about 1250 miles, away. If the RCMP is responsible for notifying everyone in BC immediately, and all of Canada at the same time, Alaska should do the same.
Did Alaska release any information about the double murder on the Alaska Hwy? If not, I think all criticism of RCMP for not being vocal enough about the seriousness of the situation is unwarranted.
