A fifth Canadian soldier has died from injuries he suffered when a grass fire swept through a military training area last month.

Four people were killed initially and dozens were injured when the fire, which ignited during a live fire training exercise, spread rapidly through Canadian Forces Base Wainwright carried by strong winds on 17 October.
