Stuart Rostant, M.B.
Cambridge Bay, Nunavut
Medal of Bravery
On July 10, 2014, Stuart Rostant rescued a young boy from the icy waters of Freshwater Creek in Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. When Mr. Rostant realized that the child, who had been playing in the water, was now in distress, he did not hesitate to jump in to reach his side. Struggling against the current, he swam back to safety while holding the young victim.
