  1. Thank goodness the family finally has some closure. So far they feel that he succumbed to exposure after a fall

    Maureen Trask was never going to quit looking for her son.

    She knew the outcome wouldn't be good, but that didn't matter. She wanted his remains. She wanted to bring him home.

    Trask said her son's skull was found by the Michigan Backcountry Search and Rescue Volunteer team Sunday near the east shore of Lady Evelyn near Walsh Lake.

    The remains were sent by Ontario Provincial Police to the North East Region Forensic Pathology Unit for examination and have been positively identified as Daniel Robert Trask of Kitchener.

    “This was what we were here to find,” Trask told The Nugget in a telephone interview Thursday afternoon from Lady Evelyn. “We suspect he fell and suffered a fracture, but the cause of death is still inconclusive.”

    Trask said a rib bone was found yesterday, however it's unclear if the bone is human or animal.

    “The bone is being sent away to be tested,” she said. “We're just guessing right now. We can only anticipate what Daniel did his last day.”

    Trask said the Michigan Backcountry Search and Rescue are assisting the Ontario Provincial Police in the search for more of Daniel's remains and other clothing.

    She said the search is happening both in the water and on land.

    Daniel Trask was reported missing in November 2011. His car was found on Red Squirrel Road near Camp Wanapitei at Ferguson Bay after he was reported missing.

    At the time of his disappearance he was 28-years-old.

    The discovery was found during an extensive search organized by the family. Search teams arrived May 21 and were expecting to remain in the Temagami area until May 31.

    The Trask family also arranged for two certified cadaver dogs from the Ottawa Valley SAR Dog Association to be up there for three days.

    In 2013, the Michigan Backcountry Search and Rescue Volunteer team had located Daniel's backpack. It was found about five kilometers north of where his winter jacket and snow pants were found in May 2012.

    The Trask family have organized countless trips to Temagami to find Daniel.

    Daniel, who also went by Dan or Danny, spent his summers canoeing in Temagami and returned to the area for the Changing of the Seasons, a native celebration.

  2. I calmly explain the hypocracy of me donating to a tax write off for the company asking for the donation. If they ask everyone for a dollar and collect 1000.00 that day. We just allowed them to claim 1000 of charitable donations of their tax bill. A bill which contributes to the cost of running this country/province. So know the government has to find somebody to make up that shortfall and up go our taxes once again. So we get hit twice, DO NOT CONTRIBUTE TO CHARITIES THROUGH OTHER COMPANIES!!!!!!!!!!!!! Donate yourself and get a tax reciept.
