The DHC-2 float equipped aircraft was conducting a VFR flight from Slate Falls, ON, to Sioux Lookout/Pelican Lake Water Aerodrome (CKA6), ON, with the pilot and one passenger. While flying enroute at a low level, at approximately 22 nm North of CKA6, the aircraft contacted the water surface of Lac Seul, in the vicinity of Chamberlain Narrows, and nosed over and broke apart. The pilot and passenger, both having minor injuries, exited the aircraft and inflated their personal flotation devices. They were picked up by another Bamaji Air aircraft that was also in the area and were transported to CKA6 for medical aid. C-FHEP has sunk.
