Several family members of those killed and injured in the Humboldt Broncos crash say they still have one big question: Why?

Permenant revocation of the truck driver’s licence

The company who hired him should be held equally responsible. They hired him and put him on the road knowing full well he shouldn’t have been and wasn’t fully trained. One man, who made a mistake, shouldn’t bear the brunt of all this. It’s an awful situation all around. :(

2/2 the companies push drivers to rush, to be in the destination on “time” (faster the load goes bigger the payment for the companies) to neglect the logbook etc... the driver get paid by miles so it’s the same for him. Broncos families should ask this question to the company 😢

I happen to know the inside of this business.. and it’s very sad.. I do believe that the driver is devastated too and trust me no driver no matter the attitude/character wants to be in an accident even insignificant but you have to ask the company he worked for ...1/2

That day was written in the star,Fate, it is still a sad story,families trying to heal and move on, the extent of physical injuries that they have to live with all their life, PTSD. I would forgive him too,16 souls is with him everyday,that is punishment enough

Because he's a terrible driver who shouldn't have been on the road

Lots of blame to go around

Good question! He sure can give some clues, distraction, icy road, a bear crossed in the red light or he did a quick check ✔ on Tweeter notification! Could be dozens of reason, reality is those poor souls are gone.

LIVE updates: Truck didn't stop at intersection where Broncos crash happenedCourt has heard that a semi-truck driver barrelled through a stop sign and caused the deadly Humboldt Broncos bus crash. Rolling through Stop Signs is normal operating procedure here in Quebec. It’s unfortunate that so many lives were lost because of this idiot. This type of intersection never should have existed in the first place.

‘Everybody’s going to feel it’: Humboldt Broncos families prepare for sentencing hearingJaskirat Singh Sidhu pleaded guilty earlier this month to 16 counts of dangerous driving causing death, as well as 13 counts of dangerous driving causing bodily harm Part of the blame should be placed on the township for not setting up the intersection in a proper manner folk's. It wasn't deliberate ! Township is more to blame than anyone. Was he at fault.? I am sure he was. Was there intent? No. I am not sure housing this man in a prison with actually criminals is going to serve any purpose. Community service. Speaking about it with other truckers. Awareness. Just sad Time for the ministers to do something about this

Truck didn’t stop at intersection before Humboldt Broncos crash, sentencing hearing toldJaskirat Singh Sidhu was going between 86 and 96 km/h when he drove into a rural Saskatchewan intersection north of Tisdale last April He'll get a slap on the wrist, be out in under 10 years max That finding was a no brainer! How dumb do you think we all are? I knew that from looking at the first images that were published. And I am in Ontario. Stop this bullshit reporting. Talk about how badly designed the intersection is.

'Everybody's going to feel it:' Broncos families prepare for sentencing hearingThe hardest thing Chris Joseph ever had to do was get through the first 48 hours after his son died in the Humboldt Broncos bus crash. Commercial driver licenses should be under federal review & adhere to revamped standards. New drivers should be strictly regulated. i guess the families and friends have been feeling it in last 365 days its a irreplaceable loss may god give them all courage and strength to move Very sorry to all families involved in this awful accident. Sidhu waived a trial, pled guilty to all counts, and has asked for no deals. 100+ victim stmts may bring closure, but this man has stood up and knows he was wrong. I hope some decide to not read their statements.

Word on the ground is Indian Mafia selling fraudulent licenses. Is this happening here? Sixteen dead and he won't even serve 10 years in prison The plan is to cut back some trees? Why not add another stop sign? Make it a 4 way, this would probably have avoided the crash in the first place.

Under construction: Broncos family focused on rebuilding, not sentencing hearingWhile many Humboldt Broncos players and their families will be in a Melfort, Sask., for next week's sentencing hearing, the Straschnitzkis won't be. Instead, their time is being consumed by construction on their home in Airdrie, north of Calgary, so that Ryan Straschnitzki, who is paralyzed from the chest down, can get around.
