The 74-year-old accused was convicted of incest, sexual assault, and sexual interference involving his sister, niece, and great-niece over a 46-year period.
The Crown sought a 3-year penitentiary sentence, while the defence sought a conditional sentence.
The court found a conditional sentence inappropriate due to the gravity of the offences, the breach of trust, and the need for denunciation and deterrence.
The accused was sentenced to a global term of 3 years in penitentiary, along with ancillary orders including a 10-year weapons prohibition, a 10-year s. 161 prohibition, a DNA order, and a lifetime SOIRA order.
