The man was 87 and the woman, 86.

Local health officials who would check in on the couple have opened an investigation.

Radio-Canada quoted one neighbour as saying she saw a multitude of flies when she looked in the window and that she was convinced there was at least one corpse inside.

The CBC’s French-language network said neighbours hadn’t seen or heard from the couple for between four and six weeks.
