The body of 22-year-old Mackenzie Trottier, who had been missing since December 2020, was found at the Saskatoon landfill, police confirmed on Tuesday.
The body was identified as Trottier’s through dental examination, bringing an end to a search that lasted nearly four years.
"Today we have our answers. Mackenzie is home," her father, Paul Trottier, said.
After a Saskatoon police news conference, he personally thanked the police team who conducted the search — who sat in on the press conference.
"Thank you for your service," he said, holding back tears.
Saskatoon Police Chief Cam McBride said Trottier's cause of death is "currently undetermined," based on an autopsy conducted Aug. 1.
The Saskatchewan Coroner's Service is investigating.
