The mother of a six-year-old girl who went missing for three days in north-central British Columbia has described her joy at their reunion, which played out on social media videos.
Footage shared on Sunday night by a Facebook group devoted to the search for the girl shows mother Gail Skin rushing into the forest to meet rescuers, then emerging with her daughter wrapped in blankets, to the applause of other responders.
The girl went missing on Thursday and fears for her safety had been growing as temperatures dipped below 10 Celsius overnight in the area. Police say the girl was found in a forested area that had already been searched between her home and the First Nation band office.
