Royal Canadian Mounted Police
Becoming a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police was always a dream for Constable Carrière. He had a good sense of humour and a “joie de vivre.” He always put his family first. He was a good athlete who liked to hunt moose and deer. He joined the Underwater Recovery Team in 1996. As part of a Customs inspection; he was engaged in a hull search for suspected contraband drugs on a ship at the Little Narrows Gypsum Company on the Bras d'or Lakes.
While he was inspecting the hull of the ship he reported that he was low on air and then the surface team lost contact with him. Despite an immediate search by the other team divers, he could not be found until the next day. Constable Carrière was married to Diane and had two children, Mélanie and Marc-André.
