Company Statement on Tragic Incident

Idyllic view of the Canadian Rocky Mountains.

We are heartbroken by the tragic incident at our Whitecourt office, where on December 7, 2024 our valued employee, Dave Beauchesne, was fatally injured in a shooting. This devastating event has left us grieving the loss of a beloved team member.

The RCMP have apprehended the individual involved, and charges have been laid. We are cooperating fully with authorities and are taking every necessary step to support our team during this incredibly difficult time. As this remains an active investigation, we are unable to provide further details at this moment.

Our thoughts are with the family, friends, and colleagues of Dave, and we are doing everything we can to provide them with support and care. The safety and well-being of our employees, customers, and community remain our highest priorities.

For those wishing to offer support, our team in Whitecourt has organized a GoFundMe campaign to assist Dave’s family during this challenging time: https://www.gofundme.com/f/the-beauchesnes
