Humboldt planning $25M tribute center honoring victims of bus crash

The city of Humboldt, Saskatchewan, has announced plans to open a $25-million tribute center to permanently commemorate the lives lost in a fatal bus crash in 2018, according to The Canadian Press.

The building will feature a gallery honoring the victims of the crash, as well as an arena and a fitness and physiotherapy area. The city said construction will not begin for at least a couple of years.

A semitruck hit the bus transporting the Humboldt Broncos junior hockey on April 6, 2018, killing 16 people and injuring 13 others.
