HALIFAX – Two children are dead, and another man and child are injured after a boating accident in western Nova Scotia.
On Saturday evening, RCMP responded to calls of a boater in distress on Lake Rossignol, near West Caledonia.
When officers arrived, they found one man and three children were in the boat when it overturned.

Officials used a search-and-rescue helicopter to find all four boaters, and transported them to hospital.
Two of the children died as a result of their injuries.
A 45-year-old man from Fall River, and one child, have non-life-threatening injuries.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Oct. 19, 2025.
