Episode MMIMB: Byron Watson

0:00 57:35

On November 26, 2023, 23-year-old Byron Watson left his auntie’s home on Lonsdale Street in Maple Creek, Saskatchewan. He told his family he’d be back later that day — but he never returned.

Byron, a member of the Nekaneet Cree Nation, was a well-known presence in the small community of Maple Creek. He worked at the local livestock auction barn, supported his brother at hockey games, and was planning to return to work in the oil fields that January. There was nothing unusual about the day he vanished — no signs of distress, no clear destination. He simply disappeared.

In the weeks and months that followed, Byron’s family and community launched extensive searches across Maple Creek and nearby Nekaneet territory. The RCMP conducted aerial searches and used drone technology, but Byron has still not been found.

If you have any information about Byron Watson’s disappearance, please contact Maple Creek RCMP or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.
