I recently stumbled upon the case of Lonnie Philip Boudreau while diving into old disappearance mysteries, and something that caught my interest was the part about the sightings of him in the Ottawa streets after he vanished. It's so intriguing to think about how a 10-year-old could navigate the city during winter, potentially evading detection like that. Imagine being a kid with so much street smarts, enough to potentially survive out there for weeks. Some reports said he was panhandling on Rideau Street and even visiting arcades—did anyone else who’s familiar with Ottawa in the early '80s hear about specific places he might have sought refuge? I wonder if there were particular hot spots for runaways back then, places that maybe didn’t get as much attention back in the investigation. Would love to hear any thoughts or memories from locals or anyone who's dug into this case!
