“[Shingoose] is deeply missed by her family and police are concerned for her well-being,” police said in a Tuesday news release.

“It’s unusual and uncharacteristic for Leslie to be away from her family for this long or this period of time,” explained Const. Hady Hammoud in an interview with CTV News.

“Leslie’s a very cared-for person, she comes from a very caring home.”

Shingoose is described as 5’4” tall (162 centimetres) with a slim build, black shoulder-length hair and brown eyes.

When she was last seen, she was wearing a dark-grey jacket, black pants and white running shoes.

Anyone with information about her whereabouts is asked to call police at 403-266-1234.
