Community Mourns Reverend & Wife in House Fire

0:00It's April 5th, from your city to your ears. This is Canada News Today, powered by AI. A heartbreaking house fire early Easter morning and Wat Magustoi, Quebec, took the lives of Reverend Tom Martin, his wife Marianne, and their grandson, Rowan Martin. Reverend Martin had served the community for more than 30 years at St. Edmund's Anglican Church, offering pastoral care and leading services for both Cree and Inuit folks and that northern spot on Hudson Bay. Chief Robbie Coopett broke the news on Facebook Sunday, calling on everyone to rally around the grieving family with support and compassion during this tough time. An investigation is underway to figure out what caused the blaze, and Quebec Provincial Police Major crimes unit is stepping in to handle it. As the community remembers Tom and Marianne's decades of dedication and love, they're pulling together stronger than ever in the face of this loss.
