MONTREAL – The family of a 22-year-old Ontario man are renewing efforts to find him, more than 10 months after he disappeared at the Mont-Tremblant, Que., ski resort north of Montreal.
On Friday, they published online an open letter reminding the public he is still missing. And in a recent interview, Liam’s mother Kathleen Toman said the family is asking the thousands of people who were at the resort last season to see if they remember anything that could help the case.
“The (new) ski season is opening, and this is the time that people are thinking about their past trip last year — a memory could spark something,’’ she said.
Liam Toman was last seen Feb. 2 around 3 a.m. as he was heading back to his hotel at the popular Quebec resort, during a ski trip with friends.
Kathleen Toman said she hopes someone who was at the resort at the same time or after might remember an important detail. Liam’s parents are encouraging the public to look through their phones and social media for pictures, text messages or conversations around the time of Liam’s disappearance, to see whether there is anything that could help find him.
“We want to see how this resonates with people who are back on the resort again, from all over the world,’’ Kathleen Toman said.
The reward for any information that leads to finding Liam was recently raised to $50,000 from $10,000, which has triggered an increase in the number of tips coming in, said Liam’s father Chris Toman.
Liam’s parents are adamant that someone knows what happened to their son. “We are really hoping that someone’s conscience will get the best of them, or someone knows something, and they will speak up,’’ said Lara Toman, Liam’s stepmother.
Liam’s wallet was found on March 22 in a parking lot, not far from where he was last seen. Quebec provincial police say their investigation is ongoing.
The family said they will co-ordinate a search in the area next spring, once the snow has melted. Four searches were conducted in November.
