I was initially going to make the edit myself, but I mucked up the templates and I probably ought to leave it to somebody else. Anyway, the CBC reported on his death about ~20 minutes before this writing. The news hasn't really broken on any internet sources so it's hard to find a citation.--142.165.145.129 (talk) 16:42, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I made the alteration to the Infobox, but we are awaiting further confirmation to fill out more information, i.e. place of death, official reports from reliable sources, and other details as required. --Skol fir (talk) 18:28, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
