A search is underway in Saanich, B.C., for a missing man with dementia.
Christian Dube, 64, was last seen leaving Veterans Memorial Lodge in the Broadmad area Saturday night.
Crews were on the ground searching Mount Douglas Park, which is about five km from the lodge, on Tuesday.
“We have members here from various search and rescue groups on the southern part of the island, they’ve come in today and they’re searching areas off the trails so it’s off the trail searching and it’s going through salal and very difficult terrain,” said Jack Johnson with the Peninsula Emergency Measures Organization.
