RCMP said there’s no public threat to the community, but Garand says people are still concerned.
“The local RCMP do their best but there are far too few of them in our area. These fellows have a large area to look after.”
Garand said he visited the families of the victims Tuesday night adding both men were fathers and each had two children.
“It’s very devastating to all of us in the area,” Garand said.
“I’m at this time short of words on this situation.”
He said both men liked to have fun and enjoy life.
