Protect Missing and Exploited Children Across Canada: A National Call to Action

This Petition Preserves History and Confronts Escalation

One year ago, this petition was launched in response to the disappearance of six young boys across Ontario:

Michael (15), Kimani (16), Ayden (15), Trayshawn (15), Malachi (15), and Alpachino Mignott (25).

All six were eventually located.

We acknowledge this not as closure — but as evidence.

We honour Alpachino Mignott, who was found deceased in Niagara and has since been laid to rest. His life mattered. His death demands accountability, not silence.

The fact that each of these cases required prolonged advocacy, public pressure, and community mobilization to reach resolution demonstrates a hard truth: our systems did not work as they should have.

The issue did not end.
It escalated.

What began as a regional concern has now revealed itself as a national public safety and human trafficking crisis.

 
A Canada-Wide Crisis Demands a Canada-Wide Response
Across Canada, children and youth are going missing under circumstances consistent with grooming, coercion, manipulation, and exploitation.

These cases are not isolated. They are increasingly cross-provincial.

The case of Jay’siiah Webb-Long, who disappeared in Ontario and was later located in northern Saskatchewan, confirms what families and communities have long observed:
youth exploitation does not stop at provincial borders.

Trafficking routes operate across jurisdictions — while responses remain fragmented, delayed, and inconsistent.

This is not solely a municipal or provincial issue.
It is a matter of national public safety and requires federal leadership, in coordination with provincial and municipal authorities.

 
This Is No Longer a Request — It Is a Demand for Change
This petition moves beyond asking for awareness.

It states plainly: the current response to missing and exploited children in Canada is unacceptable and must change.

Children cannot consent to exploitation.
Children must not be reduced to statistics.
Families must not be left navigating silence, stigma, or blame.

This is about prevention, accountability, and coordination — not politics.

 
Who We Are Calling On
This petition calls on the following stakeholders to act, collaboratively and within their mandates:

1. The Government of Canada
2. Provincial Attorneys General and Solicitors General
3. The RCMP and municipal police services
4. Public Safety Canada
5. Health Canada, recognizing youth exploitation as a public health crisis
6. Police oversight and accountability bodies
7. Media organizations
8. Child protection agencies
9. School boards and youth-serving institutions

 

This is not about blame.
It is about responsibility.

 
What We Are Demanding
We are calling for the following national-level actions:

1. National standards for missing youth response, including immediate risk assessment
2. Clear timelines for public updates that balance transparency and investigative integrity
3. Cross-provincial data sharing to prevent jurisdictional gaps
4. Victim-centred language policies that eliminate harmful “runaway” framing
5. Independent oversight mechanisms for delayed or mishandled cases
6. Sustained funding for prevention and early-intervention programs

These measures are achievable.
The cost of inaction is not.

High-Risk Regions Requiring Public Vigilance (FOMB Red Zones)
Find Ontario Missing Boys (FOMB) continues to document repeated movement into and through high-risk regions:

Ontario:
Orillia, Sarnia, Timmins, Niagara, Barrie, Windsor, London, Sudbury, Longlac, North Bay, Thunder Bay

Cross-Provincial Routes:
Ontario → Saskatchewan (Saskatoon to Pelican Narrows)

Quebec Corridor:
Hawkesbury → Rigaud → Vaudreuil-Dorion → Île-Perrot → Montreal, with potential spread further across the province

If you live in or near these areas, your vigilance matters.

This is not normal.
There is a pattern.
Ignoring it enables harm.

 
If You Have Information — Act Now
If you have seen any of these children — or have dashcam footage, transit sightings, school or community updates — contact police or Crime Stoppers immediately.

Confidential tips can also be shared directly with Find Ontario Missing Boys (FOMB).

Silence enables exploitation.
Information saves lives.

 
Why Sign This Petition
This petition is not driven by outrage — it is driven by responsibility.

It is a foundation for sustained national pressure, coordinated action, and systemic change.

Protecting children is not political.
It is a moral and civic obligation.

We will continue to speak their names.
We will continue to demand transparency.
We will continue until our children are protected.

Bring our boys home.
Share. Report. Stay alert.
Sign this petition.

These boys deserve the same urgency, visibility, and justice as every child in this country. We will not let their stories go quiet. We demand answers. We demand action. And we will not stop until all our boys are brought home — or accounted for with truth, transparency, and dignity.

We are all in this together. Their families need answers. Our boys need to come home.
