A three-year-old Montreal girl seen in St. Albert, Ont. moments after being found following a four-day search on Wednesday, June 18, 2025. (Courtesy/Noovo Info) A bail hearing has been scheduled for next month for the mother of a three-year-old Montreal girl who was missing for three days before being found on an Ontario highway. The toddler was found Wednesday on the side of Highway 417 near St. Albert, Ont. after her mother reported her missing on Sunday. An Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) drone spotted her alone after police believe she spent the entire time all by herself with no food or water. The girl's mother appeared in court again on Friday at the Valleyfield courthouse after she was arrested by Quebec provincial police Monday evening and charged with one count of child abandonment. The Crown prosecutor requested and was granted a publication ban to protect the young girl's identity. As such, the name of the girl's mother, or anything else that would identify her, cannot be published. The Crown is opposing her release from custody. A judge scheduled a two-day bail hearing on July 3 at the Valleyfield courthouse as the prosecution waits to receive more evidence from police. The accused mother was remanded into custody at the Leclerc detention centre for women in Laval and was ordered not to communicate with the victim or her father.
