On highway 16, West of Prince George where I lived for several years, there is a town called Vanferhoof. In 2014 my mom got a job there and due to some circumstances she took it. She was given a place to stay which was an old motel turned into 5 rental units. My mom called me first night she was there and told me she was feeling very unsafe and had a bad feeling. The room next to her was talking very loudly and there was a car circling the property. She decided to drive to a busier part of town and sleep in her car. Next morning when she returned. There was a police everywhere. The people in the room next to her got killed. The thought of if she decided to stay there that night still haunts me. Highway 16 is no joke.

While I agree indigenous ppl seem to get unfairly forgotten by police in these cases, I believe the narration here was misguiding, it seems to me police genuinely had trouble setting the record straight from the stories told by family members, including the one who actually told police they had been found and were fine. That detail alone to me seems massive and warranting of an investigation, if a family member indeed said that then that person must have been somewhat involved in a cover up yet the narrator here glossed over like it was just police making stuff up, did they make it up or did the family member lie? That's a pivotal question, not an anecdote to just move on from.

Daycare at a logging camp. Ronnie was clearly desperate. When ronnie was unable to get his brother to watch his kids and the mystery man told him that there was actually day care at the logging camp, I'm guessing alarm bells went off for he and/or his wife, hence the disturbing last words on the call. It seems like they ignored their gut on this one.

Hard to imagine what the motivation would be for the killer. These people didn't have any money, and having to dispose of an entire family (and win a violent encounter with the husband) seems like a steep entry price for just a SA on the wife (if that was the motivation), and we don't know if Ronnie had even mentioned his family at all at the point that the two began discussing work at the logging camp (leaving open the possibility that the killer was primarily interested in Ronnie). The two advantages this course of action seemed to have was getting one/some/all of these people to _willingly_ travel to a destination in the middle of nowhere (where nobody would be around to see or hear whatever happened next), and also to eliminate the only other person who could point investigators in the right direction. The kids seemed to just be in the wrong place at the wrong time, but I'm not any kind of expert on this case (or an expert at all, for that matter)

I have to agree. I had to sign up for a special social justice class just to learn about indigenous groups in Canada and the injustices that they faced. (Deplorable that it wasn't in history classes to begin with) It was a class run by a teacher who made it her passion to teach topics that weren't regularly taught. The school board hung it over her head that if students didn't sign up-- she couldn't teach it. I'm forever grateful that we had members of different groups come in and share their experiences and open up about the terrible things they were forced to go through, like the residential schools. It's not something we should ever forget.

In both of the high schools I attended it was mandatory to take an indigenous focused art class and English class which focused on art and literature created by indigenous people. In one of the indigenous studies English classes I took, at the second school I went to, we had to do research on historical events focusing on the injustices and the oppression of indigenous peoples here in Canada. (I live in Ontario btw). I did mine on the Oka Crisis, but a girl in my class did one on the highway of tears. It was the second time I had heard of it but the first time I had really learned about it and became familiar. That was a project that stuck with me, because as we all presented our research and applied the context of Indigenous culture and the generational trauma caused by residential schools, I could tell we all gained an emotional connection and understanding of the topics we chose and learned about. It became even more personal to me then. As a young, white Canadian, I am genuinely glad to see Canada's horrific history truthfully being taught in school today, for I probably would have remained sheltered from it just as past generations have. I think being upfront about the validity of Canada's brutal treatment towards indigenous peoples, allows people to truly see the problem and understand, in a clearer sense, the next steps to reconciliation. Obviously there is a loooonggg way to go, but it feels like we're in a step in the right direction. More than we ever have been. The way the information was presented in this video helps people from in and outside of Canada become aware of its history as well, which is something I admired.

"Will we ever find out what happened to the Jacks family? I have no idea. But somebody does." These parting words paired with the sketch of the unknown man was deeply unsettling. It kept me up for hours the first time I watched this video, and even now as I rewatch it, I have to look away. Your videos are informative, respectful to the victims and insanely well made when it comes to sharing these horrific stories. Please keep up the great work!

I just refuse to believe that the strange man had no involvement in what happened to the family. Who would just go to a random guy in a bar you don’t frequent and offer him a job? Not only that, but to keep adding details to the job so that Ronnie couldn’t say no, such as hiring his wife and having a conveniently located daycare for the children. At 1 AM?? I hope that the truth comes out soon and that the family gets the peace they deserve after all this time Edit: I’m not at all blaming the family for agreeing to this whole deal.

Yeah. It seems that way. And evidence seems to suggest that Ronnie attempted to get someone to care for the kids (his brother) before accepting the offer, so it clearly wasn’t the ideal scenario for the family, else they wouldn’t have made that call. People say the offer of daycare is weird but what if was more casual (as in ‘just bring the kids and watch them yourself’) and Ronnie just said day care was available to his mom to appease her? Then such an offer would have been much for believable for Ronnie and Doreen. The offer may have just been made at 7pm but they were chatting in the pub for a while, and 1am was just when they left as Doreen would have needed time to prepare for the kids. So many aspects to this case. If only there were more witnesses in the pub that night…

He attacked a white woman and was convicted of a less severe attack on her and jailed for a few years. The police never filed charges against him for the native women even after lots of evidence it was the same guy, those cases are either cold or closed. My friend has been trying to find out why now that she’s an adult and can advocate for herself but the department still has little interest in it, maybe hate crime on governs now that I think about it; turning a blind eye so these communities will still suffer; but to the criminal they’re just easy prey with 0 consequences

Protecting who. A red haired man that is who. Abbotsford 1995-1996. Quess who.

Almost the entire interior of this province is an ideal spot for someone wanting to harm others or commit any horrible acts without getting caught, especially up north. The northern half of BC only has a population of roughly 260,000 despite being 569,000 square kilometres. That’s one tenth the population of Brooklyn in an area larger than the UK. It’s also incredibly easy to get lost, even for those familiar with the areas. Just minutes from a town or city can find you in places of unnerving isolation with no one else around. Mountains, hills, valleys, canyons, thick forests, swamps, raging rivers, etc. it’s all here, and it’s a perfect place for evil to hide. Add in the systematic racism, bureaucracy, and general laziness of the RCMP and chances anyone will be found are frustratingly small. I hope proper closure can be achieved for the families of all those missing one day, and that justice can be served to all who have destroyed these people’s lives. Exceptional documentary!

VERY well done piece not only about the family's disapperence, but also putting it in some context within Canada's ptoblematic relationship with it's indigenous natives

As soon as I heard RCMP I already knew how this was going to go. It's just rage-inducing the treatment that indigenous people get in this country and the complete lack of care from police officials and the government is astounding.

It’s really hard to report on something that has almost no coverage (because journalists generally don’t deem native people going missing to be interesting), therefore - without any facts around the case - people lose interest and speculate less and police are ultimately less pressured to put more resources into a case. But that cycle in itself is extremely telling.

The idea of day care at a logging camp might sound weird but on a summer vacation in the BC interior in '84 or '85, we took a wrong turn and ended up on a logging road, at the end of which was a logging camp that looked more like a campground there were so many campers and families. We were allowed to stay for a couple days because the people running the camp were really nice and understood how we got there (and dad just happened to have a few bottles of rye in the camper..) but there were dozens of kids of all ages. That kind of camp existed so It's not completely outside the realm of possibility for a job prospect to include daycare, which would really make a the Husqvarna guy's story believable.

You create a really empathetic and emotional environment while talking about this case. You are very well versed and I appreciate the work you put in into humanizing this family and it not just being another cold case.

This was absolutely phenomenal in every way. This police investigation would be hilarious if it wasn't so horrifically tragic. I really can't believe I've never heard of this family and this moved me so so so so deeply

Well there's very little the Police can do if you *carelessly* place yourself in danger! I mean seriously, who invites a TOTAL STRANGER into their home and entrusts their wife and children into their hands?

As a born and raised British Columbian, I'm so ashamed and angered by this story!! The way our RCMP treated, (and in many ways still do so), our First Nation citizens is appalling😡 My heart breaks for any family members, already going through such a terrible thing, made to suffer simply because of their racial heritage. This story is so awful on so many levels, thank you for covering it 😢❤

@@eighthdoctor The first step to change is awareness. If people aren't aware of the crimes being committed against the First Nations, then the police/government are just able to sweep it under the rug. It's a deep issue of corruption and abuse of power, that can't be solved by just one person. But if more people are aware, then they will be unwilling to let the abuse and racism be covered up in their own communities. I can understand the frustration of John though. Maybe part of their bitterness is from lack of action by those in power and scale of the ignorance of most Canadians. Doesn't make them lashing out at well meaning strangers alright though.

​@@Human4Peacebut they arent. There is archaeological records showing that these "natives" crossed a land bridge and killed off those who were living in Canada before them. Just like the so called "Natives" in the USA who decended from a wave of migration from Asia and killed off the peoples who were there before them

just found your channel this morning and have already watched all your videos. the production and quality is amazing. i wish you had more videos, but i can't imagine the time and effort you put into them already. they truly are amazing please keep up the awesome work

You are very talented I love the format of your videos, the tact with which you explore the case, and that it’s a case I’d never heard of before that needs more media attention. Im subscribed and look forward to the next video. May the Jack family Rest In Peace and I hope their family members get closure and justice.

Your content is incredible, I really appreciate your in-depth research, sympathy to victims, and diligent research. Everything about your content and channel are just spectacular!

Oh man, the animations are sooo good. It really improves more and more. Always amazing seeing this much work and time you put in these videos. Not to mention that if you don't trust something or a source, you keep on searching deeper until you know 100% sure. Like MANUALLY checking all those news articles, rather than giving up if there isn't a search result. Mad respects, really.

someone paid for it

A fantastically researched and articulated documentary.

what does not make a whole lot of sense is that this guy is out of work because of a back injury, yet he is so gung ho to relocate himself and his entire family to work at a logging camp where he is probably going to cause more injury to his back ? either he had too much alcohol or he is plain stupid.

This is the first I’ve found your channel . I love you calm and detailed narration, respect for the victims and family, and touch of sarcasm at the investigators

Your work quality is phenomenal, happy to see another upload

really hope to see a follow up with some better news about this case.. crazy how a whole family goes missing like that..

Thank you for your coverage. We don’t get enough.

The way you approached this story...the truth of how it was fumbled by racist authorities and so many cases are. I just have huge respect for you. Thank you.

I appreciate you not only talking about minority victims , but going into detail at how so many institutions failed minority victims. You didn’t have to make a video about this family nor one talking about the dangers natives face, but you did, and I applaud you for it.

i love this channel please keep posting more often. you manage to tell these tragic stories in detail. one of the best channels I’ve seen on youtube. my condolences to the family.

YT recommended your channel this morning, I clicked, got hooked, binged and subbed. Top notch quality! Thank you for your work, looking forward to your future videos!

I don't normally comment on KZread videos but I just want to thank you for such an amazingly well researched and produced upload. I'm blown away this is free to watch, absolutely fascinating to watch. Thank you!

i’m native from northern michigan, and this case hurts me, it’s so tragic. i still can’t believe the police, media, and the public are still so disinterested in this case. thank you so much for shedding light on it.

Thank you for covering this case with so much love and care

just binged your whole channel. Masterful! you truly are making documentaries.

SO THRILLED TO SEE ANOTHER REAL HORROR VIDEO!! Easily one of my favorite channels on YT!

How insensitive are you

All I know is that the Jack family should not be forgotten; just because it suits the RCMP.

One of the finest narration I've come across. Amazing channel, wish you had more videos.

I've been watching through your videos the past couple of days, and I love all of the indications of the depth of research you do. Talking to the people involved, combing local libraries... The effort shows in the quality of your work! Thanks for bringing these stories to light the way you do :)

Wow I can't believe RCMP mistakenly closed the case basing on their flippant assumptions and disgusting prejudice. I mean they are known for their incompetency but this was next level ridiculous how they botched the investigation in the initial stage. Simply heartbreaking to have seen Doreen's sister break into tears. As if they haven't suffered enough already! Props to you guys for your brilliant work and how you laid this case bare. The narrator is supremely talented and her dedication and commitment reflects through the video. Moreover she didn't hesitate to show her compassion and empathy towards the victims and in essence, natives in Canada who take the hit and I think that's very commendable. Most narrators just read from the script but she seemed really connected to her content. The morbid undertone combined with exceptional research makes this one of the most well-made and thorough videos based on Jack family disappearance! I know chances are very slim but I just hope their loved ones receive some closure. 34 years is not a joke!

I love the amazing editing. People have no idea how much effort and time this takes. You have a gift for sure!

Ha, no kidding. That one calendar transition scene towards the end nearly made me throw my PC out the window 😂

I stumbled upon your channel and boy I’m glad I did. Wonderful videos and you are a terrific narrator as well.

When you said, "It had been 34 years since the family went missing" I had actual chills run down my spine.

the utter apathy that the rcmp displays towards the indigenous people in canada is absolutely fucking heartbreaking. i'm constantly scared that one day one of my friends will go missing because they dared go outside at night or went to a bar the night before as a woman, or that one of their sons wont come home from school. the edmonton city police are particularly cruel to the community, especially those that occupy our unhoused population here. we need to do so much better.

This is excellent. I'm glad you talked about the underlying causes for why this case didn't receive attention from press or police. It doesn't get talked about enough in this context.

I am very impressed with these videos. The narrator is so empathetic and doesn’t glaze over details. My new favourite
