To paraphrase Lilo from Lilo & Stitch , family means no one gets left behind or forgotten — but the adorable Disney character apparently has never ridden in an Uber.

The ride-share company released its latest Lost & Found Index, a compilation of the year’s most common — and most bizarre — items left behind by distracted and careless passengers.
Toronto, along with Ottawa and Calgary, ranks among Canada’s least forgetful cities, but some of the items passengers have left behind are undeniably unique.
Weird or what?
As far as Torontonians go, an Uber driver came across a 15-pound frozen turkey in their vehicle, while a turtle shell, aquarium fish and the supplies that go with them were also found.
Other unforgettable forgotten items include 12 pizzas in Brantford, a 25-pound kettlebell in Vancouver, a blue wig in Edmonton, a violin in a hard case in Montreal, and a switchblade knife that Uber learned had been “passed down” from the rider’s great-grandfather in Regina.
More common items left in cars include the predictable — phones, wallets and purses, headphones, backpacks and luggage, keys, clothing, glasses or sunglasses, jewellery, and vapes or e-cigarettes.
Surprisingly, passports also made the list.
Canadian carelessness
Uber also outed the most forgetful cities in Canada. Saskatoon came in first, followed by Windsor, Regina, Victoria and St. John’s, Newfoundland.
Winnipeg, Montreal, Halifax, Kelowna and Kitchener-Waterloo rounded out the top 10.
The report also determined that the most forgetful day and time in Canada is Sundays at 1 a.m. — perhaps not coincidentally following a Saturday night out. The most forgetful days last year were Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 — Halloween and the day after — as well as New Year’s Day.
Uber Canada advises riders who leave something behind to get in touch with the driver by calling them or contacting them through the app. There is a $20 fee to have an item returned, which goes entirely to the driver for the inconvenience of bringing it back.
