Disappearance of Liam Toman: SQ sets up command post in Mont-Tremblant

By Samira Ait Kaci Ali, The Canadian Press

On Saturday, the Sûreté du Québec (SQ) set up a command post in Mont-Tremblant in the hope of obtaining new information concerning the disappearance of an Ontario man nearly a year ago.

Liam Toman was last seen on Feb. 2, 2025, at around 3 a.m. as he was returning to his hotel in the popular Quebec resort during a skiing trip with friends.

According to information provided by the police, the young man, who was 22 at the time, “was wearing a black Volcom coat, black snow pants, a green sweater, a plaid shirt, a white hat with dark stripes, and brown work boots with black toes.”

The SQ’s mobile command post, located on Chemin Curé-Deslauriers, across from Tour des voyageurs II, will be open from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. to gather information and witness statements that may help advance the investigation.

“We know that Mont-Tremblant is a major tourist resort. So perhaps there are people who came last year at the same time and are back again this year,” said SQ Sergeant Marc Tessier.

Police officers will also be walking around the village and ski resort to raise awareness among travelers and encourage them to talk to the authorities.

“If people have information, we can’t assume we already have it. We’d rather have the same information twice than risk overlooking something important,” said Tessier.

Liam Toman’s family is also on site to assist the police.

In December, they once again appealed to the public for help, reminding them in an open letter that Liam was still missing.

The reward for any information leading to Liam’s whereabouts was recently increased from $10,000 to $50,000.

In November, Radio-Canada’s Enquête program devoted an episode to this mysterious disappearance, which reignited media interest in the case.

The family said it would coordinate a search of the area next spring, once the snow has melted. Four searches were conducted in November.
