My brother in law and his family of 12 grew up in Ste Pamphile and the 6 boys along with dad grew up loggers working in the woods of Que and NW Maine, One of the boys had cut a widow maker that kicked out and he tried to get away from it felling the wrong way and was killed driving a Jonsered 24" saw 6' into the ground while he was still holding the saw, That how quick accidents can happen.
