Provincial police found three people inside the home — two men and a woman in their 60s.
Police say Serge Dubois, 62, and Daniel Royal, 63, were pronounced dead at the scene.
A 60-year-old woman was transported to hospital in Sherbrooke, Que., with serious injuries, but her condition improved during the day.
Police spokesman Louis-Philippe Ruel says all three people had apparent gunshot wounds and are part of the same extended family.
