“In late 2023 a substantial amount of data was collected which identified a specific area of the landfill, located at 42 Valley Road, which may contain evidence in the investigation,” police said.

Resources from Saskatoon police, as well as RCMP, Calgary police and forensic anthropologist Ernie Walker will be used in the search.

Police said regular updates will be provided and that 33 days have been set aside for the search.
