Calgary police say they may have new information in the search for a missing Saskatoon woman.

Mackenzie Lee Trottier was last seen leaving her home in Saskatoon Dec. 21, 2020, and she may have recently been seen around Calgary.

Her family first heard about the new tip on Dec. 2, 2021, but only about one sighting in the downtown area.

Since then, there have been multiple sightings.

“We recently received information that a person matching Mackenzie’s description was spotted multiple times in downtown Calgary and are asking anyone with information about her whereabouts to contact police”, Const. Gord Fraser said in a news release.

Joshua Grella, Public Relations Coordinator with the Saskatoon Police Service (SPS) cautioned, “The reports of possible sightings of Mackenzie have not yet been substantiated by police in either province.”

With the upcoming anniversary of her disappearance, Mackenzie’s father Paul Trottier said – hope remains for their family.

“It’s very hard as a father not to jump in your car and drive to Calgary and start scouring the downtown core where she was sighted,” said Trottier. “The 21st will be kind of that one year mark and it’s going to be a difficult day.

Mackenzie was 22 years old when she went missing and is described as being five-feet tall and 145 pounds with green eyes and a tattoo on her right ankle.

At the time of her disappearance, she had medium-length blond hair that was shaved on the right side, and was known to wear distinct makeup, black yoga pants and a green jacket.

Saskatoon police are also hoping to identify a man they believe may have information regarding Trottier’s disappearance.

In addition, CCTV footage of the man was collected from a Saskatoon location and is available for viewing on the SPS Facebook and Twitter accounts.
