Looks like Springbank Air Training College just lost their Grumman Cougar:

I remember seeing this bird around YBW in my flight training days.

Reports are that one engine failed, and notably the single engine service ceiling for the Cougar would be around 4500' in ideal conditions. So no surprise he ended up settling onto terra firma. Good job by the pilot and glad he is ok.
