The small northern Alberta community of Fox Lake is in mourning after four people died in a house fire over the weekend.
RCMP were called to the remote village early morning Saturday to find a home destroyed by fire.
Investigators noted it had likely been burning for some time.
Two children initially thought to be in the home were found at the Fox Lake Nursing Station, where they were treated for non-life threatening injuries.
