PLEASE BRING ME HOME – MISSING PERSONS CANADA

Please Bring Me Home’s mission is to solicit anonymous tips regarding cold case missing persons across Canada. Our goal is to find the missing and bring them home to their family and friends. The group was founded in early 2018 by Nick Oldrieve, Matthew Nopper and Melissa Harwood, although the history of the organization stretches back to early 2016. In total, Please Bring Me Home and its members have assisted in locating 17 missing people, two of whom were deceased.

While we do accept anonymous tips, we are also active in the field, speaking with family, friends and anyone who might hold the key to these disappearances. It is an uncomfortable reality that those who know key details about these disappearances often do not wish to speak with law enforcement. This is where we come in; we are not concerned with the criminality of the cases but only in locating the missing.

We have conducted several large scale searches for local missing people including Lisa Maas and Lois Hanna. In 2018, we helped locate the remains of Nolan Panchyshyn and Terry Schope. A tip to our website assisted the Ontario Provincial Police in locating the remains of murder victim Nolan; five months later we located Terry while searching the shoreline of Owen Sound Bay.

Originally, our primary focus was on seven cases within Grey and Bruce counties. In the fall of 2019, following the CTV W5 episode which focused on our work to find missing people, this all changed. Due to the influx of requests from family members wanting our help to find their loved ones and from former members of law enforcement wanting to join us, we expanded our scope to include missing persons from across Canada.

We are committed to raising awareness and keeping missing persons cases in the public eye.
