CALGARY — A man suspected of killing a Calgary woman and her toddler daughter has been charged with two counts of second-degree murder.

Robert Andrew Leeming, 34, appeared via video before a justice of the peace.

The bodies were discovered before dawn in a heavily wooded wilderness area in the Rocky Mountains west of Calgary.
