THE MISSING BOYS | 3. The Fork in the Road
2026-10-29
While Jay'siiah's family waits to find out what comes of the police search in Pelican Narrows, 14-year-old Kai's future is on a razor's edge. He’s seen the dark side of selling drugs in remote communities and says he wants to get out, but will he? Mark Kelley speaks with Kai’s mother about her fight to stop him from going OT – out of town to deal drugs – and her desperation to keep him from going missing like Jay’siiah did.
This investigation is a co-production with CBC’s the fifth estate.

Investigations about the people who get hurt when the systems meant to protect us fail, hard. Not by accident, not from poor planning, but because someone chose to do wrong — and others chose to do nothing.
With chief correspondent Adrienne Arsenault as the guide, CBC’s best journalists go deep over multiple episodes to reveal the fault lines in institutions we’ve come to trust and the fates of people caught in the middle.
Our latest investigation, The Missing Boys, follows two teens who disappear after being lured by gangs to traffic drugs far from home. Hosted by Mark Kelley, this four-episode story is a co-production with CBC’s the fifth estate.
Episodes start October 22, 2026.
