Several hundred people, including family, friends and community members gathered at a vigil for Colten Pratt in the same downtown spot where he was last seen.
They said prayers and lit candles for the 26-year-old who has been missing for more than 70 days.
Pratt was last seen on Nov. 6 at the Marlborough Hotel in Winnipeg.
Pratt's mother, Lydia Daniels, said she hoped that the vigil at the last place her son was seen might lead to tips on his whereabouts.
"That it might spark a memory or spark a sighting of him or somebody may have seen him," she said.
"We want to share and pray together and have a candlelight vigil to keep the flame of hope burning. To bring people forward with information that will help locate my son."
