A man who rescued a grandfather and grandson from a tipped canoe on Nova Scotia's South Shore this week is being hailed as a hero. Jakob Almero, 20, and his grandfather, 74-year-old Luke Geerligs, decided to take advantage of the warm weather on Monday and go bass fishing. But a sudden gust of wind sent a huge wave their way, tipping the canoe and sending the two men into the frigid lake. His grandson, meanwhile, was trying to pull the canoe and his grandfather back to shore. Geerligs said the whole thing feels surreal, but he's thankful for what DeMings did for him and his grandson.
