The restaurant where JC was last seen.
Restaurant Blanche Neige Montréal Business Story
''Blanche Neige Restaurant has been serving its steady clientele since 1959. Surrounded by hospitals and situated on the perimeter of the University of Montreal campus, this community fixture has been a second home to immigrants, students, professors, nurses and other locals in one of Montreal’s most dense and multicultural neighbourhoods. Blanche Neige is a discreet Montreal landmark, appreciated by longtime customers, and fondly remembered by people in faraway places like Morocco.''

Welcome to Ws @RC74, thank you for chiming in!
Stumbled onto this missing person and was surprised at how little information i could find in order to start this thread, wish there was more to post.

Perhaps I can help, were you able to find anything else? Newspaper articles? Tv report? my father and grandmother shielded me from it
Supposedly his friend Sam was with him also never seen again. Any info on a Sam from the same time?
Jojo was seen with some of the Dubois brothers from south shore, they are notorious criminals w many unsolved murder cases

If you find any other pics, news links etc, that would be great as we have to provide links with posts, or at least write that information is in your own opinion (IMO) UNLESS.. you become a ''verified insider'' then you can post what you want.
Is there any news articles about "Sam"?
Scary stuff!

I don’t know Sams full name and it was only a few years ago that my father mentioned it to me, he was from St-Leonard anglophone but bilingual
At some point my family just completely stopped talking about the case, he’s not expected to ever be found, definitely not alive (imo)
I’d like to see the official police reports from 1979

A few oddities….
My mom says that pic looks nothing like him
He had brown eyes not green
I had always heard that he was 24 when he vanished (imo)

The profile says brown eyes, does it not?

I also thought that this was that same john doe. I even submitted a tip to see if it might be him. The medical examiner is going to call me back... but I guess it isn't him.

I only looked here afterwards....

I hope you find him and get closure wherever he may be.

Now that the AB medical examiner is going to give them a call to see if it matches with the tip I submitted, combine that with your phone call and it will likely get their butts in gear!

Good luck with your search, I hope you find him!!

I was referring to the missing persons dossier, it says green eyes, Im almost positive he had brown eyes.
The man from the car accident was wearing a wedding band, Joseph wasn’t married, trust me it’s not him, we have an idea what happened, there was a major investigation that went on for years, we hired PIs. He had no connection to Alberta. Someone knows what happened to him, at this point most witnesses are gone. Thank you for your interest

That dossier might have been old information because the profile says brown eyes on the website. Yes, I realized after messaging the medical examiner in Alberta and looking on here that it's likely not him. I was just stating that with calls coming about him. That might get their butts in gear to actually investigate what actually did happen. I wish you luck!

Thank you. If you know of other resources please let me know
I had never seen that case profile on the SPVM missing persons chronology and I’ve looked, perhaps after I contacted them, someone there decided to publish it. I was talking to a friend about my long lost uncle n he pulled that up, then I found this
