OTTAWA—My husband, Jean-Daniel Lafond, and I were saddened to hear of yesterday's crash of a 15 Wing Tutor training jet near the Moose Jaw aerodrome in Saskatchewan that resulted in the deaths of Captain Bryan Mitchell and Sergeant Charles Senecal of the Canadian Forces.

We offer our sincere condolences to their families and friends, and our heartfelt sympathies to their colleagues.

Michaëlle Jean
