RCMP in Steinbach are reaching out to the public for help in an ongoing missing person investigation.

They’re looking for Christopher Peter Hawkins, 48, who was last spotted more than a year ago, on May 29, 2020.

Hawkins, who goes by his middle name, Peter, was last seen walking toward a path leading to the campground in Whiteshell Provincial Park, after taking a taxi from the RM of Ste Anne to Betula Lake.

Police searched for him at the time he was reported missing, but so far their searches have proven fruitless.

“We miss him — his humour, honesty, and caring; his love of music and sharing his detailed knowledge of NHL hockey,” said Hawkins’ mother, Julie.

“His cat Wendy still sleeps on his bed, missing him and hoping he’ll come home.
