Deaths and injuries after incident and major fire at Canada's CFB Wainwright

Canada's Defence Minister David McGuinty confirmed both fatalities and injuries after an incident Saturday caused a major fire at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright in Alberta, about 200 km southeast of Edmonton. Officials have not released a death toll or a cause, and the RCMP is involved in the investigation. Wind gusts of up to 100 km/h pushed the fire past the base fence; local officials said no evacuation order was in effect Saturday evening. Prime Minister Mark Carney called it a serious incident, and McGuinty said more details would come in the coming days.
