Lower St-Lawrence

The fire at the seniors residence, Résidence du Havre, in L'Isle Verte has shocked the small community in the Lower Saint Lawrence region.  As residents come to terms with the tragedy and scale of loss, the CBC's Marika Wheeler brought us the story of how the pharmacist whose shop disappeared in the fire, has moved quickly to serve those who depend his services. 

Mary Molson Iversen, a matriarch of the Molson family, died in Montreal earlier this month. A loving obituary talks about how she grew up in the city, but Métis Beach, on the Lower St-Lawrence, was where she spent her summers. This afternoon, we listened back to part of a conversation from a few summers ago when Jacquie spoke with Mary Iversen, joined by Ann Coulson, in Métis-sur-Mer.
