OTTAWA—It is with great sadness that Sharon and I learned of the senseless act that took the life of Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent and injured another soldier, in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec.
The members of the Canadian Armed Forces risk their lives every day to serve our nation and defend the values for which we stand. We mourn the loss of a dedicated man in uniform and extend our sincerest condolences to his family, friends and colleagues. We also wish a speedy recovery to the injured soldier.
