Incorrect information appeared in a story in the Free Press on Jan. 23. TORONTO - A woman from British Columbia is the first person in North America to be diagnosed with H7N9 bird flu, after apparently contracting the virus while travelling in China earlier this month, Canadian health officials said Monday. A man travelling with the woman was also sick with an influenza- like illness around the same time, and it's believed he too was infected, but test results are still pending, said Dr. Bonnie Henry, B. C.' s deputy provincial health officer. " We think it's very likely that the other person also had the same influenza," Henry said during a teleconference organized by the Public Health Agency of Canada. The couple, who are in their 50s, were not sick enough to require hospitalization. They were treated with the flu drug oseltamivir - sold under the brand name Tamiflu - and were selfisolating in their home, said Dr. Reka Gustafson, medical health officer for Vancouver Coastal Health. Officials would only say they were residents of B. C.' s Lower Mainland region. They have recovered, the officials said. H7N9 is a subtype of flu that infects poultry. But in March 2013, authorities in China reported several cases of human infections. Since then, nearly 500 human infections have been diagnosed. - The Canadian Press First H7N9 case here diagnosed S T. ALBERT, Alta. - The sister of an Alberta Mountie told mourners at his funeral Monday he would want them to live life the way he did - with joy, passion and with every effort to make the world a better place. " He would want us to throw ourselves into the things that bring us joy and to do it for him. He would want us to follow our hearts... he certainly did that," Mona Wynn said in her eulogy before thousands at a recreation centre in St. Albert, Alta. " David would want us to forgive. He was a peaceful man. He didn't have the time to even notice a grudge much less hold one." Const. David Wynn, 42, died last Wednesday, four days after he and auxiliary Const. Derek Bond were shot during a struggle with a suspected car thief at a casino in St. Albert. He was shot in the head and never regained consciousness before he died. The shooter, career criminal Shawn Rehn, killed himself hours later. Wynn's sister remembered her brother as a person who brought enthusiasm to everything he did, be it scuba diving, swimming, fly fishing, spending time with his family or serving his community and country. " Over the past 10 days, there has been such an outpouring of stories about Dave and obvious love for him from the people that he has touched that I have realized he was far more than I ever imagined," she said. " Dave was an ordinary man with an extraordinary capacity to make the world a better place for everyone around him." She noted her brother's organs and tissue were donated, and the family has been told they will help as many as 35 people. Insp. Kevin Murray of the RCMP called him " the finest example of a front- line police officer." The Rankin Family and Paul Brandt both performed songs in Wynn's memory. Two friends and colleagues from his paramedic days in Bridgewater, N. S., also sang an emotional song about the life of a first responder. Earlier in the day, the skirl of bagpipes filled the air as a procession of 2,000 police officers, military members and first responders wound its way through the streets of St. Albert. A riderless horse, a pair of brown boots turned backward in the stirrups, led a black hearse carrying Wynn's coffin to the funeral service. The procession included 860 Mounties in their traditional red serge and 450 officers from the municipal police force in nearby Edmonton. The Mounties came from across Canada and from as far away as Newfoundland and Nunavut. A handful made the trip from Bridgewater. Hundreds of spectators, who were encouraged to wear red, lined the procession route under sunny skies and unseasonably warm temperatures. Many were holding Canadian flags and one giant flag was strung from the erected ladder of a fire truck. Thousands of white ribbons were tied to trees and poles along the route. " We lost an important person in our society, and we just wanted to be here to pay our respects," said Beverly White, who lives about five minutes from the shooting scene and attended the procession with her grandson. " It's going to be an emotional day." Mounties were also remembering Wynn at mini- memorials at detachments across the country. In Winnipeg, members of the Winnipeg Police Service, RCMP and members of the public gathered at RCMP D Division on Portage Avenue to remember Wynn, who is survived by his wife, Shelly, and his three sons, Matt, Nathan and Alex. - The Canadian Press JASON FRANSON / THE CANADIAN PRESS The casket of slain RCMP constable David Wynn is carried during his funeral in St. Albert, Alta., on Monday. PHIL HOSSACK / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS An RCMP honour guard is piped to the memorial at RCMP Winnipeg headquarters to lay a wreath. Const. David Wynn Nation mourns slain RCMP officer Alberta constable remembered as ' a peaceful man ' By John Cotter and Chris Purdy " David would want us to follow our hearts, to do the things that we love. He certainly did that. He took on things with such heart. Swimming, scuba diving, model trains, camping - all things he put his heart into." - Wynn's sister Mona Wynn " From the moment I met Dave, I could tell he was kind, generous and above all proud of his family and his accomplishment of graduating from the RCMP - a pride that was easily transferred to all of us who attended his ceremony. As many of you know, it was easy to be proud of Dave." - Wynn's cousin Tina Manetta " It's been said that we shouldn't pray to be sheltered from danger, but rather to be fearless when confronting it. Dave was fearless. The courage he brought to the execution of his duties is amplified by the fact that he did so on behalf of others. Those he swore to protect - the good people of St. Albert, Albertans, Canadians." - RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson " We really need to support the people who help save our country - keep it safe." - Glenn White, one of the St. Albert residents who lined the streets for the funeral procession A_ 02_ Jan- 27- 15_ FP_ 01. indd A2 1/ 26/ 15 9: 42: 09 PM ;
