At least 15 people died in a terrible car accident in Canada.

At least fifteen people died in a terrible accident in the Canadian province of Manitoba on Thursday and Friday.

A bus mostly carrying older people and a truck collided at the point where two major highways meet, not far from the town of Carberry in southwestern Manitoba, 170 kilometers west of Winnipeg.

As per what the police said, the bus passengers were on their way to a casino in Carberry when the accident happened.

At least 15 people were pronounced dead after the crash, according to Deputy Police Officer Rob Hill, who is in charge of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Manitoba.

There were about 25 people on the bus, and most of them were older.

Ten more people were getting medical care at the hospital. The police said that both drivers were okay, but they wouldn’t say who was at fault for the accident.

Images from the scene of the accident showed broken wheelchair seats and walking frames next to the tarps that covered the dead bodies.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sent his deepest condolences to the families of those who died and said that he was thinking about those who were hurt.

Premier Heather Stefanson of Manitoba also sent her condolences to the families of the people who died in the terrible accident.

This crash is one of the deadliest on Canadian roads in recent years. In April 2018, a truck and a bus carrying a junior hockey team crashed on a rural road in the neighboring province of Saskatchewan, killing sixteen people. The truck driver was given an eight-year prison sentence in 2019.

The deadliest accident in Canadian history happened in 1997 in the province of Quebec, when a bus full of elderly people fell into a ravine and 44 people died.

When something so terrible happens, everyone wants to help and stand with the families and loved ones of the people who died in these terrible accidents.

To make sure that tragedies like this never happen again, people should always be careful and responsible behind the wheel and follow the rules of the road.
