An inquest into the death of Nadine Machiskinic has been scheduled for the end of March.

Coroner Brent Gough will preside over the inquest, scheduled for March 27-31.
When an inquest is called, it is to determine who died, when, where and how the death occurred, usually in a case of a sudden and unexpected death.
Recommendations can also be made to the authorities to prevent similar deaths from occurring in the future.
