WINNIPEG – The father of a Manitoba girl who died in a car crash that claimed the lives of three others is remembering his daughter as someone who lived life to the fullest and embraced the outdoors.

Steph Delaine says his daughter Chloe Vermette loved quadding, camping and anything to do with vehicles, from working on them to going to car shows.

The 18-year-old was with three other teens Sunday when police say the vehicle they were in was hit at an intersection near the town of Winnipeg Beach, located about 80 kilometres north of Winnipeg.

Police have said the car was westbound on Highway 229, and was crossing Highway 8, when it was hit by a southbound van.

At the time, a thunderstorm was passing through the area, but RCMP say they haven’t been able to determine if weather was a factor.

Delaine calls Vermette his best friend and was someone who always looked out for him.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 9, 2026.
