In the late summer of 1992, a man named Bernard Robitaille vanished from the town of Joliette, Quebec, leaving behind a quiet uncertainty that has lingered for decades. On August 27th, Mr. Robitaille, a 43-year-old male, was at the St. Charles Boromée hospital. For reasons that remain his own, he chose to refuse treatment and departed from the facility at approximately 4:00 p.m. His exit from the hospital would be the last confirmed time he was ever seen. He left on foot, carrying a simple white "Metro" plastic grocery bag that held his personal belongings. Poignantly, his own name and address were written on the bag he carried, a small detail in a story that would soon become a long and unanswered question. Bernard Robitaille is described as a white male, standing at 68 inches tall and weighing around 128 pounds, with a slender build and a light complexion. He had curly blonde hair and blue eyes. A scar was noted on his forehead, just above his right eye. At the time of his disappearance, he was dressed in blue jeans and a white and red striped cotton shirt. These identifying details, while specific, have not yet led to a breakthrough in understanding what happened to him after he walked away from the hospital that August afternoon. The image of him walking away, with his life's necessities in a branded plastic bag, is a haunting final picture of his known movements. The circumstances surrounding Bernard Robitaille's case remain limited to the events of that day. He left a place of care and seemingly vanished into the world without a trace. The Sûreté du Québec is the agency handling his case, and the investigation has continued in the years since he was last seen. Despite the passage of time, the hope for answers persists for his family and community. The overview of the case is one of an individual who disappeared under vulnerable circumstances, with the last known details of his whereabouts being his departure from the hospital. The plastic bag he carried, with his name and address, serves as a stark reminder of how a person can simply disappear, leaving behind only questions and the enduring pain of not knowing.
