Jocelyne Raymond is dead. It'll probably come to you as a shock if you haven't heard it already, but there it is. She was run over by a tractor 3 days ago, while tending to her cows at her farm in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec. She was a spectacular french canadian, doing such french-canadianish things as speaking french and eating poutine like a pro.
