Families still waiting for answers surrounding Manitoba crash that killed 17 people

As the one-year anniversary approaches of a deadly crash near Carberry, Man., that took the lives of 17 people, families are still waiting for answers about the investigation.

The collision took place on June 15, 2023 on the Trans-Canada Highway when a semi-truck collided with a minibus that was transporting a group of seniors to a nearby casino.
