“Police and family are concerned for her well‑being,”
The North Vancouver RCMP have asked that anyone with information contact them at 604‑985‑1311 and quote file number 2026‑20084. The department also shared the appeal via its social media channels to broaden the search.
- Check the immediate vicinity of Lions Gate Hospital and nearby neighbourhoods if you were in the area that evening.
- Do not attempt to approach anyone you believe matches the description; instead, call the RCMP with details.
- Provide vehicle descriptions, clothing details, or mobile device footage that could assist investigators.
Why local context matters
North Vancouver residents know the Lions Gate Hospital area as a hub for patients and visitors at all hours. A person leaving a hospital in a gown and without shoes is vulnerable — both to adverse weather and to the risks that come with being unfamiliar with one’s surroundings. The RCMP’s request for public help reflects that vulnerability and the potential that someone in the community may have vital information.
Investigations of this nature often depend on quick community responses. Even small observations — a car seen near the hospital, a pedestrian matching the description walking along a particular route, or doorbell and dash‑cam footage — can provide leads for investigators. The RCMP are encouraging residents to review any recordings from the evening of Sept. 20 and to contact them with anything that could assist.
The file number provided by police will help RCMP staff link calls and tips directly to the investigation; providing it when calling helps streamline the process for investigators working on the case.
For now, police and the missing woman’s family are waiting for information that might help them locate Ms. Campbell. Anyone with information is asked to call the North Vancouver RCMP at 604‑985‑1311 and quote file number 2026‑20084.
