A Grumman AA-5 made a forced landing in (hilly) Gatineau Park. No injuries, and from the picture, it looks like no serious airframe damage (though they'll probably need to do an engine teardown if the prop was spinning when it hit those bushes).

This plane's based at my home airport, but I'm not familiar with it. Maybe it lives over on the museum side, with the Wacos that give tourist rides:
