Search for Parker continues in Calgary as Amber Alert expires

The search for 11-year-old Parker, missing for 10 days, continues in Calgary, Canada. His family is appealing to the public to maintain their efforts, even as an Amber Alert issued for the boy has expired. They stressed that the alert's expiration is a normal procedural step and does not signify a reduction in the urgency of the search.

Parker, who is neurodivergent and non-verbal, was last seen on July 16, 2026. The Amber Alert was granted an exemption due to the "unique circumstances" of the investigation, as he does not typically meet the legislated criteria. Police have been actively canvassing the area, gathering video footage, and following up on over 500 tips received.

“

Each day we continue to hope, to search, and to believe that bringing him home is possible. Every hour matters. We are asking our community to stay with us, to keep looking, and to continue supporting the search in whatever way you can.

Search operations have included cordoning off areas in Nose Hill Park. Local real estate agents have also joined the effort, assisting in checking vacant properties. The family's statement, posted on Facebook, conveyed their continued hope and determination to bring Parker home, urging the community to "stay with us" and "keep looking."

This is a normal part of how the Amber Alert system works and does not mean the search is ending, slowing down, or becoming any less urgent. The Amber Alert was never intended to remain active indefinitely.
