This cliché leaves no doubt as to the violence of the impact.
State of shock
"I'm shocked, like everyone else," said team president Kevin Garinger. Like all other members of the small community of nearly 6,000, Mr. Garinger said he knew each of these young men and the team around them.
Some families have received news and joined their son, others are waiting to find out if their child is still alive.
"I can not imagine what these parents can live," Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wrote on his Twitter account. "I am wholeheartedly with all those affected by this terrible tragedy, in the community of Humboldt and elsewhere".
