The Sûreté du Québec (SQ) confirmed the people's remains were found Monday in St-Roch-de-l'Achigan, where the explosion happened.
Police had been searching for two workers and a sub-contractor who went missing after the blast rocked the small municipality 50 kilometres north of Montreal.
The bodies will be sent to a forensics lab Montreal to be formally identified.
The tragic discovery comes one day after the small community came together for prayer at a mass at the local church, still reeling from the horrific incident.
