Sounds bad. I hope he survives. If not, may the God of the Dead reward him according to his merits.

You have our best wishes and that is why they are called 'life' jackets.

The search continues, had an email from the family, they've been using helicoptors with heat seeking infrared, jet boats, ground search crew, and divers. The canoe hasn't even been found yet.

Tomorrow is his 21st birthday.

Status: offline 		they've widened the search area and changed the investigation to "recovery" instead of "rescue"

" RCMP have scaled back the search for two missing canoeists. They went missing after their canoe sunk on Sunday night. Two others made it to shore. The command centre at the Snye has been taken down. The full search went for three days with no results. Search and Rescue plans to do periodic searches of the area now."

Thanks everyone for your prayers and thoughts.

You have my sentiments; I'm sorry to hear that your cousin didn't make it.  We had a father and daughter tip their boat over in the Ouachita River a few weeks ago.  Luckily a guy was fishing on shore and managed to save the daughter.  The father drowned sadly.  Life is short, you never know what's going to happen from day to day.  God bless you and your family.
