Absolutely tragic
RIP
Absolutely Tragic 💔💯 y’all need to check on y’all ppls
Who caused it did they survive and get arrested???
based on the info, the semi struck the bus
@cerebrum excrement if the bus moved in front of on coming simi – it surely will crash.
Let’s not blame the Wrong driver. Let RCMT do their job
Handivan had the stop sign big rig had right of way, I live 45mins away from there, I know the intersection!
Trucks usually have dash cams
@Urban Bricks smell my balls
I’m so sorry to hear that so many people are injured, killed, or sad. A special thanks to all the people in emergency services. You guys stay tight and hang tough. Godspeed.
Rip.
A terrible thing to happen to a bus filled with elders. Sending good wishes to survivors and many condolences to the bereaved.
Rest in peace all those lost souls.
💐🕯💔.
It’s a terrible thing to happen to ANY HUMAN BEING.
@January There is always one!
@Silent Night Which kindergarten did you graduate from.
@January Attention seeker!
I’m so sorry. Seniors Fly High
😢😢😢😢
It sounds like the bus pulled out in front of the semi-truck.
@Apelles Thk u for helping to clear this up because I don’t know Canadian traffic laws.
Sadly yes. The bus was crossing a split double lane highway. Was hit on the south east-bound traffic lane. Speed there is 110 km/hr (65 m/hr). Tragic. Condolences to everyone involved
Wow, I keep thinking Overpass and or interchange, but that type of technology is well beyond Manitoba
Driving so fast?
Sad story. Prayer 🙏🙏🙏
That is nuts! 😧
Jesus must have been busy helping a gambler win a bet 😇🙏😇🙏😇🙏😇🙏😇🙏
has the entire world going insane
Cooool
Im at a loss of words… my condolences
So sad😢
Not again. I remember the hockey team on a bus that was wiped out a few years ago by a truck that ran a stop sign. Prayers for ALL from your neighbors in Minnesota!
Agreed
Yeah the jaded part of me wonders if we tend to focus on these crashes because we’re fortunate enough to not have other types of mass casualty events as often in Canada.
I hope this doesn’t come off as insensitive but at least they all lived to an old age before this end.
The youngest was just 55 years old.
Wow.
God Bless all their souls.
Who had the right of way?
I believe the bus was Wrong
But Dead Right never matters
Handivan had the stop but failed 😔!
🙏🙏🙏
What is the world coming to
May the angels never leave their side
Try starting a stricter background check on big rig drivers. It only takes one bad driver
@ella fields was announced today the truck had the right of way.
As someone who has driven “big rigs” the whole process of maintaining a license should involve road tests or something. Some ppl drive like they got extra lives 😂😂😂
Why when the truck driver had the right of way, maybe people that carry passengers should be scrutinized more strictly !!!!!!
@Michael Smythe , that does not matter as long as the truck driver was non-white….and bus driver was white.
@ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਸ਼ਾਇਰੀ, ਕਵਿਤਾ, ਨਜ਼ਮ ਤੇ ਗ਼ਜ਼ਲਾਂ I think you need help 😬
Rest in Peace 🙏🙏🙏 and God Bless others ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Super8
Sorry to hear our neighbors to the North have experienced this devastation. May they Rest in Peace. Condolences to their loved ones and friends. ~ USA
sad. 🙏🏻💐
Oh no! How heartbreaking. 🙁
wait fr
It was a double trailer semi
Just awful 😢 RIP hold the drivers responsible
Quite a mess eh?
Learn to drive
Praying for all the family members that have lost a love one and all that have been affected.
Embrace that diversity
⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️
God that’s awful.
May Allah grant peace to everyone who are suffering from this situation. 🌹🤲🦋
😢😢😢
Wow so sadly and so sorry for your loss may our lord God be with you all
THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS CANADA ON THE SENIORS TRAVELING BUS ACCIDENT TRAGEDY!
❤🙏✝🙏❤
MUCH LOVE❤ FROM🇺🇸
BLESSED BE 🌒✡🌘
I live in Missouri ( US) this story breaks my heart
A shame and a tragedy.
Most collisions are easily avoidable when people just pay attention.
wow that’s so sad this is crazy
They are saying one of those drivers did not make a full stop at the stop sign. Again, negligence took innocent people’s lives.
Most of the bus drivers especially the school bus drivers in Ontario are so rash that they will enter the road when the car is less than 100 feet away as they think that the car has to stop and can’t hit the bus…..
@ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਸ਼ਾਇਰੀ, ਕਵਿਤਾ, ਨਜ਼ਮ ਤੇ ਗ਼ਜ਼ਲਾਂ That’s true unfortunately. Most of them never make a full stop at the stop sign and they think they can get along with it.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😥
1 wrong move by the bus driver costs so many lives it’s insane!
No signals at the crosses?
3 of Canada’s smaller provinces and 3 absolute tragedies this past 5 years.
Rest in peace to all the victims may they be in gods hands
so the old people try to race pass the transport truck to gamble? i heard they was trying to get to the casino .
Don’t care tbh
After driving at 100 kph, slowing to 50 kph feels like a crawl. If the bus driver was someone who normally drives a car then his judgment would have conformed to that of a car instead of a heavy bus with its much greater stopping distance. Although the driver braked for the stop sign he was unable to come to a complete stop before reaching the eastbound lanes. GPS with its announcements, as distracting as that of a back seat driver, may have hampered him from exercising better judgment.
The presumption seems to be that the bus driver stopped at the stop sign and then started up again from there, but that appears not to be the case.
