UCLUELET, B.C. - Ucluelet RCMP are renewing their call for the public’s help to find Morgan Drew, who was reported missing from Campbell River more than a year ago and whose car was found at a trailhead near Ucluelet in October 2025.
In a news release issued Tuesday, October 27, 2026, Ucluelet RCMP said Drew remains missing and the investigation into his disappearance continues.
