Toronto police suspect a billionaire pharmaceutical magnate may have killed his wife before taking his own life in a murder-suicide that has rocked Canada.

Barry Sherman, the founder of Canadian firm Apotex Ince, and his wife Honey, were found dead in the basement of their lavish mansion in an affluent neighborhood.  

Two bodies covered in blankets were removed from the home and loaded into an unmarked van on Friday evening.

A realtor agent showing off the house to potential buyers discovered them hanging from rails, side-by-side, next to their indoor swimming pool, reports suggest.

Their deaths have stunned the country, and has prompted an outpouring of grief from prominent businessman and even a tribute from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Sherman, who would have turned 76 next month and was worth $3.2billion, and his wife, were well known for their generosity and gave millions to charity.

'The circumstances of their death appear suspicious and we are treating it that way,' said Constable David Hopkinson. 

Homicide detectives later told reporters gathered outside the home that there were no signs of forced entry.

However, sources working close to the investigation told the Toronto Sun that it may have been a murder-suicide.

They believe Honey could have been killed in a different location at the sprawling property on Old Colony Rd.

She was then moved to the spot where she was found with her husband. 

Their neighbors, business associates and some of Canada's most powerful politicians said they were saddened by the deaths.

'Our condolences to their family & friends, and to everyone touched by their vision & spirit,' Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wrote on Twitter.

Toronto Mayor John Tory said in statement he was 'shocked and heartbroken' to learn of the deaths, noting that the couple had made extensive contributions to the city. 

'Toronto Police are investigating, and I hope that investigation will be able to provide answers for all of us who are mourning this tremendous loss,' Tory said.

The Shermans recently listed their home for sale for nearly C$7 million ($5.4 million). 

It has five bedrooms, nine bathrooms, two swimming pools and space for 14 cars. 

There is also a sauna, hot tub and tennis courts.  

A real estate agent discovered the bodies in the basement while preparing for an open house, the Toronto Globe and Mail reported, citing a relative.

        Barry Sherman                         (1942-2017)

Age:                                                              75

Place of Birth:                Toronto, Canada 

Religion:                                              Jewish

Business:         Apotex Pharmaceuticals

Wealth:                  Estimated $3.2 billion 

Forbes Rank:              363rd in the world,                                                   7th in Canada

Education:     University of Toronto/MIT

Degree:                                     Engineering 

Sherman, 75, founded privately held Apotex in 1974, growing it by introducing large numbers of low-cost generic drugs that took market share from branded pharmaceuticals.

He stepped down as chief executive in 2012 but remained executive chairman.

Forbes has estimated Sherman's fortune at $3.2 billion.

Apotex is the world's No. 7 generic drugmaker with 11,000 employees and annual sales of more than C$2 billion in more than 45 countries, according to its website.

The couple was known for their philanthropy, giving tens of millions of dollars to hospitals, universities and Jewish organizations, CBC reported.

'They were extremely successful in business, but also very, very giving people,' former Ontario Premier Bob Rae told CBC. 'It's going to be a very, very big loss.'

The Globe and Mail reported in February that Lobbying Commissioner Karen Shepherd was investigating a complaint about a 2015 political fundraiser that Trudeau had attended. 

Sherman was born in Toronto, Canada in 1942 and was the youngest to ever enter into the University of Toronto's Engineering Science program at age 16. 

Sherman later won Canada's prestigious Governor General's Awards for his graduating thesis and went on to earn a Doctoral degree at MIT in rocket engineering, according to Forbes.  

Apotex is the world's No. 7 generic drugmaker with 11,000 employees and annual sales of more than C$2 billion ($1.55 billion)  in more than 45 countries

HAITI CONNECTION! Clinton connection: https://cotocrew.wordpress.com/2017/12/16/who-killed-barry-and-hone... "Sherman was one of the most powerful and highly-connected men in North America and was perhaps most well-known for securing a deal with the Clinton Foundation during to provide vaccines in Haiti. In September 2014, in response to the spread of the chikungunya virus in Haiti, Apotex worked with the humanitarian organization Direct Relief to donate more than $2.2 million in medical aid to the country. Apotex struck a deal with the Clintons’ Direct Relief organization to provide drugs to treat victims of the virus, saying in a statement: “Apotex is in a position to help (in Haiti), and we are delighted to work with Direct Relief…” Apotex worked with Direct Relief in Haiti, who was a “particularly active” member of the Clinton Foundation/Clinton Global Initiative community, supporting post-hurricane “relief efforts” there. The huge pharmaceutical company airlifted vaccinations and medical supplies into Haiti that was funded through charitable donations to the Clinton Foundation and other connected charities."
According to the Health and Human Rights Journal https://www.hhrjournal.org/2013/08/a-one-time-only-combination-emer... there is a clear connection between Apotex and the Clinton Foundation
