J. L. François Carrière was an officer in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who drowned on duty.〔 〕 On February 10, 2011, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans announced that a new vessel was going to be named the CCGS ''Constable Carrière''.〔 〕〔 〕〔 〕 The vessel was one of nine vessels in the new Hero-class patrol vessels, all of which will be named after Canadian heroes. ==RCMP career== Carrière applied to the RCMP in August 1987, at the age of 33.〔 He was a married man, with two young children. He was stationed in Prince Edward Island for the first four years of his RCMP career.〔 In 1993, Carrière was transferred to the detachment at Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia. While there, Carrière, who had been an amateur scuba diver, applied to be a police diver. While working as a scuba diver, with the RCMP Underwater Recovery Team in Cape Breton searching a suspected drug-smuggling vessel, the ''Donia Portland'', that Carrière died to an underwater inspection. The ''Donia Portland'' was a large freighter, and Carrière was one of a team of five inspecting the vessel.〔 He reported problems with his breathing apparatus, although his gauge showed he still had air in his tanks. Another diver who went to assist him lost contact with him due to murky water. He seems to have been unable to follow a line the divers were attached to the surface, because the buoy it was attached to had been dragged underwater. An investigation of his death attributed it to flawed procedures and equipment malfunctions, and the RCMP paid a large fine.〔 Dive rules were explicitly changed so every diver was assigned a "buddy", in order to prevent deaths of this kind in future. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「J.
