In memory of those who “died suddenly” in Canada, August 5-August 12, 2024
Ontario: lawyer Susie Paquette (46), policeman Drew Wallace (51, C); and 335 more across Canada
CANADA
A note from our lead Canada researcher:
As high as it is—higher even than the toll in Italy, although Canada has a much smaller population—the weekly toll that we have been recording in these compilations is much lower than it ought to be, due to the terseness of obituaries from some of Canada’s highly multicultural populations. The death notices from those communities are less detailed than those from the general population.
There is a similar void of information in our northern regions. It is extremely difficult to find death notices of any kind for those communities, whose rate of “sudden deaths” may well be hidden. What all this means, in short, is that the true rate of “sudden deaths” in Canada is probably much higher–perhaps five times higher–than the quite high rate that we’ve recorded here.
A note on suicides:
Suicides by young people are up 22% during the pandemic in Canada and 17 other countries (and it’s why we’re including suicides in our compilations):

Susie Paquette, 46
August 9, 2024

Susie was also a very accomplished athlete, whose love of sport found her connected with nature. She continually sought to surpass her own limits and be the best she could be. Susie will be mourned by her husband and their three children. The family warmly thanks everyone who expressed their support and compassion during this difficult time.
