I'm watching an interview on CBC right now with the owner of the Jade City Jade store in BC, where the suspects went in and got free coffee the day after Lucas and Chynna were killed. The owner says they purchased something, I think she said "a little jade bear". I'm trying to look this up but I'm not finding it. I even rewinded to listen to it again and I'm sure shes's saying "jade bear". If that's true, they were purchasing little souvenirs, it wouldn't seem like they were planning a big suicide mission. Hmm. None of this makes sense.
Just speculating. I might've completely misheard what she was saying. She definitely said they purchased something little though. lol
Considering an earlier post suggesting that Aussie and U.S LE be brought over to sort this all out:
Maybe the RCMP should take a well-earned rest and then send a contingent over to Delphi, Indiana?
Nelson River looks wide and slow, how did they ruin their boat like that. Are the rapids I am not seeing?
I feel great sorrow for all the victims in this case.
I don't normally have much empathy for the accused (if any), but maybe it's the mother in me - I can't help but also feel sorrow for these 2 pitiful boys (to me they are indeed boys) - they not only wasted their own lives, but, they pointlessly inflicted great harm on their own families, friends, community, country at large, and also an international community of travelers.
It is indeed the worst possible tragedy.

Some areas have rapids. I've seem videos of extreme kayakers on that river. The video in this article can give some idea what the water is like where they were searching.Nelson River looks wide and slow, how did they ruin their boat like that. Are the rapids I am not seeing?
Yes the boat was found just down from "lower Limestone rapids."
It is not confirmed at this time that they used the boat.
I’d be stunned if we didn’t have a firm cause of death, even with decomposition and animal activity.
Even if they died of hypothermia, they’ll probably be able to say that, simply by using the process of elimination.
I’m not going to lie, I’m hoping they didn’t take their own lives, and this was a lengthy event.
I hope they had time to reflect on their predicament.
That's kind of my thought too. Otherwise you'd think they would have gotten a bit further.Sounds very much like they died within 24 hours, maybe much less, of ditching their vehicle.

YES! As I think more about it, I wonder why they walked 1km into the bush. I think they were trying to keep going.My bet is that the trip into the woods was meant to either forage for food, or quickly hide from an overhead plane/drone. Either way, some gear was left with the intent of returning, but the return trip was not to be for whatever reason.
Why go into the woods to commit suicide? Does not make sense. It wouldn't be to make the bodies forever unfindable, otherwise they would not have left anything to be spotted on the shore. For whatever reason they went in to the woods, my guess is they became disoriented and that was the beginning of the end for them.
