It’s heartbreaking. 🙏💔

Is the driver diabetic? We have regulations against commercial drivers, pilots, captains having diabetes due to glucose incidents. I would assume Canada does as well- but it fits the description of driver behavior, being in another world.

Wednesday today or Wednesday last week?

Ugh. A parent’s worst nightmare.

Tragic loss and outcome for the children and families.

💔💔💔
