MONTREAL – Quebec provincial police are searching for a three-year-old girl who was last seen in Montreal's LaSalle borough on Sunday morning.
They say the girl was reported missing Sunday afternoon in Coteau-du-Lac, Que., about 50 kilometres west of where she was last seen.
Police spokesperson Laurie Avoine says a woman who was caring for the girl entered a business in Coteau-du-Lac around 3 p.m. and announced that she couldn't find her.
Avoine says officers searched through the night in both LaSalle and Coteau-du-Lac and also made verifications in Ontario.
Police have not issued an Amber Alert, which is triggered when a child is abducted and in imminent danger.
The girl is three feet tall, has brown hair and brown eyes and was last seen wearing a white long-sleeve shirt with pink on the collar and grey pants.

B.C. Opposition Leader John Rustad accuses former Conservative MLAs of blackmail
VICTORIA – British Columbia Conservative Leader John Rustad is accusing a group of legislators who split from the party of blackmailing its members and staff in a bid to take over and divide the Opposition. Rustad has confirmed the authenticity of a letter obtained by The Canadian Press in which he tells the Conservative caucus that their former colleagues and staff are threatening to release 'blackmail materials,' including secret phone recordings and text messages. Rustad's letter says the targets are being blackmailed to get them to take jobs or contracts with the former Conservatives, or to 'do or say certain things' if they want to prevent the materials being leaked. The letter says one unnamed staffer with the former Conservatives called 'multiple individuals in order to explicitly blackmail them,' and Rustad says in an interview that they're still deciding whether to contact the RCMP. Rustad doesn't name the former Conservatives, but Dallas Brodie, who was ejected from the caucus in January, says the letter consists of 'wild lies' and 'baseless, false, and defamatory' accusations about her new One BC party. One BC member Tara Armstrong says she won't comment beyond the statement that Brodie issued, while former Conservative Jordan Kealy, who didn't join One BC, says he has no involvement in the alleged blackmail. Brodie and Armstrong launched One BC last week. Brodie's departure from the B.C. Conservative caucus came over her controversial remarks about residential schools, prompting Kealy and Armstrong to quit the party in sympathy.

Bennett says police are treating the fatality as a 'tragic accident,' but they continue to investigate the matter. Police are also encouraging anyone who attended the race to seek mental health or counselling support if needed. RECOMMENDED VIDEO
