CANADA Canada - Ryan Shtuka, 20, Kamloops, BC, 17 Feb 2018

Still no new information in search for Ryan Shtuka
It’s close to two weeks from opening day at the resort, but for Heather Shtuka, Dec. 1 is a more poignant date.

“The year anniversary coming up is terrifying to me,” Shutka said. “Dec. 1 will be a year since I last saw him when he left to come to Sun Peaks. You know, the big hug and kiss goodbye.”
 
I am sure people are still looking and spreading tons of missing posters for Ryan. I do think there is more information not being shared with the public and I totally understand that. There is no information that Ryan had left the hill so of course his family will still continue to search there, where else would they look? I do think someone knows more about this than they are sharing. Even if they didn't have anything to do with his actual disappearance fear is in play. Who wants to step forward and then be looked at as a suspect? I watch many 48 hour and Dateline shows. All of the young people involved will never be the same. With all the trees in Sun Peaks Ryan's remains make take much longer to locate. As a parent the options of foul play or the elements both upset me. Time to Go Home Ryan, Time to Go Home Young Man.
 
Very detailed article:

The weight of silence: Ryan Shtuka's disappearance continues to haunt B.C. ski resort | CBC News
Schier called the silence from the RCMP a "vacuum of information."

"Misinformation has just been all over place," she said. "Tons of rumours. Spiritual mediums are getting involved."

Jean Strong, editor of the local newspaper Sun Peaks Independent News, said she's read several theories online about what happened to Shtuka.

"Abduction to sex trafficking, to being involved in [the] drug trade, to aliens, to animal attack," she said. "Any other wild theory you can think of has come up online, I think."

Daybreak's Shelley Joyce set out on a mission to find out what happened to missing 20-year-old Ryan Shtuka, who was last seen leaving a house party at Sun Peaks. She spoke with people who have never talked to media before about what they believe happened that cold night in February, 2018. 26:26
 
Completing the quote above "[Local newspaper publisher Brandi] Schier called the silence from the RCMP a "vacuum of information."

I'm sure this local newspaper publisher is very frustrated that police aren't regularly phoning her up to chat about everything they've found or not found, and sharing their speculations and potential theories with her. After all, the most important thing is that there be lots of content for her to publish in her paper.
 
As hard as this new podcast is to hear, without information there is no hope of finding this young man. Hopefully this new information will give this grieving family the info they need to bring their young son home before the end of the year.

I don't think your comment is fair. The public needs updates and information to continue to care about this young man. Hopefully this podcast will help solve this case.

I have a very good friends who had their son go missing years ago, they spent everything they had to try and find him. They are elderly now and will never know. This case has become one that I have been following very closely because someone has all the answers.
 
The report at the link of a man who lived near Ryan saying he'd heard someone that night yelling for someone to get in the [expletive] car is disturbing. I had not seen that reported before. That now makes me wonder if there is more to his disappearance than just inebriation/drug use, which was my top belief all along.
I just read this article earlier today and I also found the report stated by the neighbor to be very disturbing it actually made the hair on my arms stand up, largely because very early on I had a strong sense that this young guy was abducted in some fashion. People do wander off and end up in inexplicable places, but something is not right here. I can’t believe this report wasn’t publicized earlier...it’s kind of a smoking gun in terms of what may have happened to him. Thanks for posting.
