Police say a man, 45, was also found at the home and was taken for questioning.
Sûreté du Québec spokeswoman Sgt. Hélène Saint-Pierre says physical marks on the victim’s body led investigators to treat the death as a possible homicide.
Police didn’t confirm whether the two men knew each other or release the identity of the victim.
