Of the 29 team members, 15 now dead, including both of the coaches, the statistician, the radio announcer and the team driver. The other 14 boys are all in hospital. Some with broken backs, necks, legs. Some of those boys will never walk again. They ranged in age from 16 - 21. Most from Sask or Alberta, small close-knit kind of group.

The PM could barely get through his remarks.

I know there is a go fund me thing set up to help with all of the expenses. They have raised about $1million, looking for $2million. Going to be a lot of hospital bills here, too.

This is just tragic.
