Police say a man and a woman from British Columbia were found dead in a boat that washed ashore on Nova Scotia’s Sable Island on Wednesday, about 300 kilometres southeast of Halifax.

An RCMP news release says Parks Canada contacted police around 3:15 p.m. Wednesday after a three-metre-long inflatable boat washed ashore on the island with two deceased people on board.
