MONTREAL – Chambly police have confirmed that a body recovered from the Chambly Basin on Monday afternoon is that of Remy Nolet. Nolet, 19, disappeared two weeks ago when a boat he was in capsized.

Catherine Desautels, 17, was with Nolet at the time of the accident, but she survived after he insisted she take the only life jacket on board.

They may not look fashionable
but they could save your life.
Like driving without a seat belt...
it's to late to buckle up when you're dead.
​

Make sure that they are government approved.

What a terrible tragedy, do you have a link to the full story? I am curious to know what type of boat they were in.

CBC, Global or CTV news service will have a clip.

They were canoeing, just goes to show the importance of making sure you have all the proper equipment when you got out

Wow, how terribly sad . Some people like to scoff at safety and use of proper equipment but it truly does save lives. Awful for both those kids.

It is terrible - the thread is a simple attempt to keep Camping Babblers safety conscious.
