Here is some of the reaction on Twitter and from statements issued by prominent people in Canada and internatio­nally to the bus crash involving the Humboldt Broncos:

• “Just spoke to @JustinTrud­eau to pay my highest respect and condolence­s to the families of the terrible Humboldt Team tragedy. May God be with them all!” — U.S. President Donald Trump.

• “Shocked and saddened by the loss in Saskatchew­an. Thinking of all those in the Humboldt Broncos family and everyone affected by this tragedy.” Canadian actor Will Arnett.

• “My heart breaks this morning for the entire Humboldt Broncos community. I am sending so much love to everyone affected.” — Ellen DeGeneres, comedian and talk show host.

• “I am crying. This is every parents worst nightmare. I will be in prayer and will also be regretting that what faith I feel helps in the sharing of these parents grief cannot be accompanie­d by any works .... it’s a helpless feeling. I wish there was something I could do.” — Singer Chantal Kreviazuk.

• “The heartbreak of all the families and friends of these young men is felt from coast to coast, to the far north and beyond. So awful. So sudden. So incomprehe­nsible. We are all so sorry for these young lives lost and are mourning with you.” — Singer Jann Arden.
