Duceppe mother dies outside seniors residence
An older woman strayed outside an east-end seniors’ residence during an early-morning alarm Sunday and died of hypothermia when she couldn’t get back inside. She was Gilles Duceppe’s mother. TVA link may play noisy ad video.
Update: Not surprisingly, a coroner will investigate. I’m sure they would anyway, but the identity of the victim means more media attention to this story in general.

Wow, how awful. And that was a luxury residence with 3x the staff on duty as necessary by law but nobody noticed her missing. I guess they’ll be installing door buzzers by those one way locks now.

You’d think there would have to be a head count after an aborted alarm scenario like that. Well, there will be now.
