Reporters were also there, but she declined to speak with the media.
Vanier, 52, was released Friday after a Mexican court upheld her appeal.
The native of Mount Forest, Ontario, has remained steadfast in denying allegations that she spearheaded a plot to smuggle the son of the late Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi into Mexico.
Vanier has insisted her only connection to Libya was contract work she did for SNC Lavalin, a Montreal-based engineering giant with projects in that north African country.
