WINNIPEG – Manitoba Premier Heather Stefanson says the province will bring in experts if necessary as part of a review to ensure safety at an intersection where 15 seniors were killed in a crash

RCMP continue to investigate Thursday’s crash on the Trans-Canada Highway between a semi-trailer truck and a minibus taking seniors on a day trip to a casino at Carberry, west of Winnipeg.

Ten people remain in hospital and one of the six in critical condition has been upgraded.

Mounties say they have yet to speak to the bus driver as he is still receiving care in hospital.

Police have said dashcam footage shows the bus was crossing the Trans-Canada when it went the path of the truck.
