'Will do my best,' Edmonton man vowed before his death in battle against ISIS - Edmonton - CBC News: "But he knew what he wanted and whatever he wanted he was going to do it," said Martino, explaining it had been Tassone's lifelong dream to join the army. "He's our hero. He really is. As much as it hurts, the pain. This is him, this is what he wanted."

In a statement Global Affairs Canada said Canadian officials have contacted the family to provide consular assistance, but declined to provide further details.

The statement warns: "Canadians who travel to Syria and Iraq do so at their own personal risk. Due to the unpredictable security situation, the Government of Canada's ability to provide consular assistance in all parts of Iraq and Syria is severely limited. That being said, we will do our best to assist the family through this difficult time."
