Denis Lainé, M.B.
Medal of Bravery
On July 14, 2012, Denis Lainé rescued a man from a fire in Wendake, Quebec. Mr. Lainé was driving his ATV when he noticed flames coming from a cottage. He found a disoriented, injured man and struggled to keep him from re-entering the structure, as propane tanks and live ammunition were exploding nearby. Mr. Lainé then drove the victim to a first aid post, some 30 kilometres away.
