He probably doesn't have any representation who would issue a press release, and it looks like somebody just randomly found the obit on Legacy. It took two months for the obit to even be published, so it's likely been kept private for personal reasons.

As an aside, the Globe and Mail didn't 'report' his death, they just published an obituary.

RIP! His Legacy.com page has him listed as a William Paul McCartney. Either the middle and last names were coincidental or intentionally named after the famed singer.
