One of the comments on the first article indicates he might have been a local homeless man. So it might be someone who has been missing for a while. I didn't see anything about how long he had been deceased when found -- did anyone see that?

Almost a year has passed and Greater Sudbury Police say they are no closer to identifying a man whose body was found in Junction Creek on May 2, 2015.

Police said they have followed up on all tips they've received from the public, and have hit dead ends, eliminating possible matches...

He had an old pellet gun wound on his chin, with the pellet still embedded in the bone, had a one-inch scar on his right knee and no tattoos.
