The deaths of two more Canadians, victims of the Haitian earthquake, have been confirmed.
Katie Hadley was a 30-year-old engineer from Ottawa who was in Haiti to do an environmental assessment of the Canadian mission.
Anne Chabot was a 46-year-old Quebec civil servant.
For nearly two weeks, their families and friends had been hoping for a miracle rescue as search teams dug through the remains of the hotel where they were staying, the Hotel Montana.
Ms. Hadley's death was confirmed by Chris Ludwig, a co-worker at her firm, Frantz Environmental Inc., who said the family had been advised that her remains had been found.
"She was bright, dynamic. She was a star at our company," Mr. Ludwig said. "She'll be sorely missed."
Ms. Hadley was single and close to her mother. She was an athletic, well-travelled professional who had previously been on assignment in Saudi Arabia, Syria, Jordan and Argentina.
Ms. Chabot's death was announced tonight on the FTGI website, an online forum for Quebec government IT managers.
Ms. Chabot was part of a team of six Quebec computer consultants working for the provincial department of communications who were sent to Port-au-Prince to show their Haiti counterparts how to set up government websites.
Another member of the group, Anne Labelle, 55, remains missing.
All three women were among several Canadians who had arrived earlier in the afternoon of Jan. 12, just hours before the quake struck, because they flew on Air Canada's weekly service to Haiti, Flight 950.
As a result they were all in the process of settling into the Hotel Montana when it collapsed.
