亚洲天堂 Lake residents are gathered along Hwy. 16 today to honour a Lake Babine Nation member from Smithers who lost her life, 18-year-old mother Jessica Patrick.

Although the RCMP has not confirmed if it was Patrick鈥檚 body that was found on Hudson Bay Mountain earlier this month, Patrick鈥檚 family told a crowd in Smithers during a recent vigil that family members were involved in finding her body.

While the RCMP says at least 18 women went missing or were murdered along Hwy. 16 and the adjacent Hwy. 97 and Hwy. 5 since the 1970s, many people living in Northern B.C. believe that number could be higher.
