Mathieu Groleau, M.B.
Medal of Bravery
On August 14, 2012, Mathieu Groleau rescued a girl who was in danger of drowning in the fast-moving Mistassini River, near Dolbeau-Mistassini, Quebec. Mr. Groleau managed to reach the girl who had been carried away by the strong current. He fought against the turbulent waters to bring her closer to a rescue boat, onto which others then helped the pair.
