Seven people have died after a small private plane crashed on an island off the east coast of Quebec. Authorities said the plane crashed as it approached Iles-de-la-Madeleine Airport amid heavy winds and snow. Jean Lapierre, a broadcaster and former Canadian transport minister, and members of his family were among the victims. Mr Lapierre, who was 59, worked as a political analyst for CTV and other Canadian media outlets. One of those networks, TVA, said Mr Lapierre's wife, two brothers and sister died in the crash. They were travelling to the funeral of Mr Lapierre's father.
