MARC-ANDRÉ BERNIER has worked as the Chief of Parks Canada’s Underwater Archaeology Team since 2008. Born in Kapuskasing, Ontario, Marc-André’s great interest in history and archaeology led him to pursue a Bachelor and Master of Arts in Greek Archaeology. He also holds a diploma in Education, which aligns with his passion for sharing archaeological stories with the public.

Since joining the Underwater Archaeology Team in 1990, Marc-André has worked on and directed many

shipwreck projects in Canada and abroad, including France, the United States, Mexico and Argentina. More recently, Marc-André’s team led the search for the missing ships of the 1845 Franklin Expedition. In 2014, he was one of the first people to see and dive on the long-lost HMS Erebus after its discovery in the Canadian Arctic. Since then he has participated in two return archaeological expeditions to the Erebus in 2015; first in April (when the team dived under two meters of sea ice to reach the wreck) and most recently in August and September 2015.
