Members of a grieving community north of Montreal gathered Sunday for a mass in solidarity with the families of three people who remained missing following a fire and explosion at a propane distribution company last week.
Several hundred people were in the pews of the local church as the ceremony began just after 10:30 in St-Roch-de-l'Achigan, Que., about 50 kilometres north of Montreal.
Police have said winter weather and the state of the site, including the presence of various chemicals, has complicated the search for victims. While police said last week that they don't believe the explosion was a criminal act, St-Pierre said Sunday that it is "too soon to make a pronouncement on the causes and circumstances surrounding the event."
