On a cold, damp morning, police began their search of the Saskatoon landfill Wednesday as part of their investigation into the 2020 disappearance of Mackenzie Lee Trottier.
The search is scheduled to last as long as 33 days.
With a large white tent where police will be working visible behind him, Mackenzie Trottier’s father Paul Trottier said it’s a place “nobody wants to be.”
“I think anyone who would be standing in my position can understand the emotions that are involved,” he said. “The enormous amount of work that’s going on behind us is staggering.”
Meanwhile, in Manitoba, several bodies are suspected to reside in a landfill and they were doing sweet fuck all about it until recently. It was even a political thing people were taking sides on.
Imagine being this (or any) parent having to hope they find the kid that you raised from an infant, in the fucking landfill.
Gut wrenching.
Imagine, now, people saying they shouldn’t look for them. Politicians taking sides on the issue…
