The other two kids had been “accounted for” as of Wednesday, police said.

RCMP didn’t believe the young girl was in danger, but needed to speak with her mother to do a welfare check.

“We just want to see her, talk to her, ask when she plans on returning [Kailee] because she was supposed to be back,” RCMP Sgt. Jack Poitras said Thursday.

Poitras said Thursday the parents share custody of the children and Soosay didn’t bring them back to their father on an agreed-upon date.

RCMP initially suggested they may have gone to Alberta or Saskatchewan.
