Actress Hailey Merkt (31, C); Alberta: activist Judy Elaine Unterschultz; Ontario: doctor Matthew William Nelms (29, C), labor activist Steve Martin; Manitoba: educator Paul Trochanowski; & 307 more
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):

Dr. Matthew William Nelms, 29
August 2, 2024
London - It is with heavy hearts that our beautiful, smart and beloved Matthew has been called by the angels. Dr. Matthew William Nelms fought his battle with cancer right until the end. He passed peacefully, surrounded by his loving family and his beautiful wife Jessica. Although he was taken from us far too young, not a day went by where he did not do everything in his power to pursue his goals, challenge his cancer, and enjoy his life with Jessica, their dog Ryder, and his family. Matthew had a passion for helping others and dedicated his professional life to a career of serving his community. As a medical graduate from the University of Toronto, he went on to begin a residency in Anaesthesia. He was an Alpine ski racer, a dedicated student leader, a recipient of the prestigious Golden Stethoscope Award, and an inspiration to all who knew him. He never once let his cancer define who he was, or the life that he wanted for himself and his family; truly an inspiration to others battling this life shattering disease.
