Quebec police urge caution on the road after fatal collisions during construction holiday
A Surete du Quebec police car is seen at their headquarters in Montreal on Tuesday, Sept. 10, 2024. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Christinne Muschi The many road collisions that have occurred across Quebec since the start of the construction holiday have prompted the Sûreté du Québec (SQ) to issue a new call for caution for the rest of the summer vacation period. The provincial police force is reporting 17 deaths in 14 collisions since the start of the construction holiday, which has been underway for just over a week. That includes both on- and off-road collisions. In 2024, during the entire construction holiday period, 14 people lost their lives in 13 fatal collisions on the road network, while four deaths occurred in collisions involving an off-road vehicle. According to the SQ, the toll for the first week of this year's construction holiday calls for a reminder of basic safety tips. 'If we want to reverse the trend, everyone must do their part. We must slow down, be vigilant and, above all, be in a fit state to drive when we get behind the wheel,' said Sgt. Ève Brochu-Joubert in a video posted on the SQ's social media accounts. 'We know that many people are on vacation. If you want to continue enjoying them with your family and friends, please be careful on the roads,' she added. According to the SQ, the construction holiday period is always a time when the number of collisions with fatalities and injuries are particularly high. The provincial police force had already announced that it would be stepping up its presence on the roads, waterways, and trails from July 18 to Aug. 3. In 2024, during the summer holidays, failure to obey traffic signs, speeding, impaired driving, and failure to wear safety equipment were the causes of most fatal and serious collisions, according to the SQ. - This report by The Canadian Press was first published in French on July 29, 2025.

Remains found in Mille Îles River belong to man missing since 1988
Social Sharing A decades-long investigation into the disappearance of a Laval, Que., resident is now over. Laval police announced that the human remains found earlier this month belong to Robert Saint-Louis — a man who has been missing since 1988. Laval police made the announcement on Facebook Monday afternoon, saying the confirmation came after tests by the Quebec coroner's office. Divers find cache of cars in Montreal-area river — and may have solved 1980s cold case 8 days ago "The Service de police de Laval offers its most sincere sympathies to Mr. Saint-Louis' loved ones. His family tirelessly pursued efforts over the years, displaying great resilience and a profound attachment," reads the statement which also mentions how Saint-Louis' family stayed in touch with investigators over the years. About ten days ago, Exploring with a Mission — a non-profit group that specializes in missing persons cases and detecting vehicles underwater — discovered a beige 1980 Jeep Cherokee Chief off the shores of the city of Deux-Montagnes. Shortly after, police confirmed that the Jeep belonged to Saint-Louis. In total, seven vehicles were removed from that river this month. The investigation was a collaboration that also included the Sûreté du Québec as well as police in Laval and Deux-Montagnes. The seven vehicles were found in an area of the river that is estimated to be about 18 metres deep.
