Humboldt Broncos tragedy: Memorials flourish where hockey players lived and where they died - Saskatoon StarPhoenix

Friday growing larger by the hour.“I had to come and see it for myself,” says Al Lemoignan, who drove a good two hours from Moose Jaw to visit the crash site and arena.“I put flowers at the crash site, too,” he says. “Now I’m going to go buy Humboldt strong T-shirts for my grandkids.”As the city of nearly 6,000 souls prepares for the funerals that will begin on Thursday, a hush has fallen on Humboldt.The students of the area schools have returned to class; the local shops on the main street are open, but foot and vehicle traffic are slow, partly due to the frigid front that blows into town, prompting a weather alert.Still, throughout this community and along the route where the horrific crash between the team bus and a semi-truck took place, the tributes speak loudly of the grief and sympathy that has descended upon the region.Nearly every single storefront in town is painted in green and yellow, with phrases like “Pray for Humboldt” and “Humboldt Strong” written on the windows. Along a stretch of highway that spills onto the main street, green and yellow ribbons hug the stately elms.“It was my mom’s idea,” says Shelley Wylie of the ribbons made from yellow surveyor’s tape and shredded green plastic tablecloths. Wylie, her sister Lynne Brecht and mom Gwen Saret, who was named the town’s citizen of the year in 2013, spent the better part of Thursday evening wrapping the team-coloured bows around every tree in the town’s core.“I raised my family here, these are our hometown boys,” says Wylie, whose teenage daughter attends the same school of several of the dead and injured. “These are ribbons of love — we want those families to know they’re in our hearts and prayers.” Lynne Brecht ties ribbons, in the Broncos colours, around trees all over main street Humboldt, Sask., on Wednesday April 10, 2018.Leah Hennel / Leah Hennel/PostmediaThe human impulse to commemorate loss has also been on full display over the past few days at the crash site, a highway intersection so heartbreakingly close to the team’s destination on Frid...

‘Write me soon. Stay safe’: A story of Canada’s opioid crisis, told in letters from prison - The Globe and Mail

Herd. His mother and sisters called him Manie – little man – because he was the only boy in the family. Story continues below advertisement He was torn away from his home on Saskatchewan's Peepeekisis First Nation to be educated in church-run residential schools, emerging scarred by sexual and physical abuse. For years, he would cross the street to avoid passing a Catholic church. A skilled outdoorsman who liked to fish for pike and hunt deer, beaver, bear and moose, he fell into a pattern of drinking, drug taking and fighting that kept him behind bars for most of his adult life. Pictures in an album show Mr. Daniels as an adult; a tattoo on Ms. Barber's back, below, shows him as a child. Tijana Martin/The Globe and Mail Moira Barber, his common-law wife for 13 years, met him when she was dealing drugs in Guelph, Ont., and needed someone to collect money for her. She asked for the hardest, meanest dude in town. But Mr. Daniels had another side, Ms. Barber says. He was a keen artist who sometimes drew tattoos for a living. He loved roughhousing with her grandchildren, rolling around with them gleefully until the long hair that stretched down his back was a tangled mess. Mr. Kell grew up in London, Ont., 90 minutes down the 401 highway from Mr. Daniels. He started using drugs when he was a teenager. Before long, he was dealing cannabis and injecting hard stuff. As he puts it now, he would keep using until he ended up in the back of a police car. Between some 20 incarcerations, he tried over and over to get clean. He suffered several overdoses, coming close to death. In Spencer Kell's dining room, angel and devil portraits drawn by Mr. Daniels hang behind him. Blair Gable Mr. Kell and Mr. Daniels forged their friendship during two stints sharing a cell at Maplehurst. On the range at "the Hurst," they won respect for their experience and toughness. Mr. Daniels had an ugly temper. He could flip on you in a second, Mr. Kell says. But he stuck up for the underdogs, especially the new guys. Mr. Kell looked up to Mr. D...
