Sinclair is described as having brown hair and blue eyes. He is about 5-foot-7 and 194 pounds. It is not known what clothing he was wearing when he disappeared.

His sister, Oshan Marie Lazuk, has been sharing information about her brother on Facebook since his disappearance, hoping to find him. In her most recent post, she urged anyone who may have information to step forward.

"No family should ever have to go through this," she wrote. "It is unacceptable that we are still waiting for the answers and closure we deserve (...) Even the smallest detail could help. We are looking for closure and justice."

She also thanked family, friends, community members, the investigators and police officers for their tireless work.

If you have any information about Kolby Sinclair’s disappearance or whereabouts, please contact the Vancouver Island Integrated Major Crime Unit line at 250-380-6161.
