The father of a teen who died in a crash that killed 16 people on a junior hockey team bus is questioning why Ottawa is waiting two years to make seatbelts on new highway buses mandatory.
Documents obtained by The Canadian Press under the Access to Information Act show Transport Canada considered enacting the rule sooner following the April 6 tragedy involving the Humboldt Broncos.
The team was on its way to a playoff game when the bus and a semi-truck collided at a rural Saskatchewan intersection.Sixteen on board would die and 13 were injured. The truck driver faces dangerous driving charges.
