A second body has been recovered after a canoe overturned on a lake in the Alberta Rockies.
RCMP say they were called on Saturday evening about a capsized canoe on Barrier Lake.
The lake is about an hour’s drive west of Calgary, in Kananaskis Country.
Police say a 30-year-old Calgary man and his parents were in the canoe.
RCMP said earlier this week that the body of a 60-year-old man had been found while a 56-year-old woman was taken to hospital with hypothermia.
Police say the son’s body was found on Wednesday by the RCMP’s underwater recovery team.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Aug. 20, 2025.
