Forty years later, it remains one of Canada’s most perplexing unsolved mysteries: What happened to Nicole Morin?

On July 30, 1985, the eight-year-old girl left her penthouse apartment in west-end Toronto to meet a friend for a swim. She was never seen again — and not a single piece of physical evidence linked to her disappearance has ever been found.

Earlier this summer, the Toronto Police Service marked the 40th anniversary of Nicole’s case by announcing a $50,000 reward for new information that leads to her location.

Police also released a new forensic age-progression sketch that shows what Morin could possibly look like today, at 48 years old.

“This case is not closed,” Det.-Sgt. Steve Smith told reporters, standing outside Morin’s former building on the day of the anniversary. “It has never been forgotten, and it only takes one piece of new information to make that difference.”

On tonight’s episode of Closer Look, we are joined by two people who continue to hold out hope that someone will come forward with the elusive clue that will crack the case: Melissa Elaschuk, a childhood friend of Nicole who went on to become a police officer, and Amanda Pick, CEO of the Missing Children Society of Canada.
