Who fking dislike this? It's a tragedy that pretty much the team died.
weirdalfan1980 people probably disliked because of the media
Good point!
The reporter is horrible. Was she not prepared to speak with him. She didn’t even pronounce his nickname correctly.
I know lots of people that play hockey my cousin was good friends with lots of the boys 🇨🇦
My thoughts exactly...
You've got such an amazing positive attitude Ryan! Toronto is with you....continue to be inspiring! ❤️❤️
Wishing this remarkable young man much strength in the days, weeks, months and years ahead. Hope his sledge hockey dreams come true!
We are here for you too. Prayers and tons of Well Wishes to everyone impacted personally by this tragedy ☮️ Vancouver, BC, Canada 🇨🇦

You are an incredible strong inspiring person for all of us to look up to!
Thinking about you man
Brave and composed in the face of incredibly insensitive questioning.
Grant Hubick: Agree ~~~ The sickeningly-sweet voice of the CBC interviewer is disturbing as she tries to pry out as much emotion as possible.
Couldn't have said it better myself
All the families are in our thoughts such a tragedy
Such a strong young man! Keep healing & sending love to you, and all your teammates effected as well as your families
It is so touching to hear the strength and optimism in this young man's voice. It will be a long hard road for the families of the deceased and for the survivors, physically and psychologically injured in this trajedy. Hearts all over the world are praying for this group. Hearts for Humboldt.💚

From his description it sounds as if seatbelts could have helped in regard to some of the injuries. He was ejected, a seatbelt could have helped prevent that. Seatbelts for busses!
Indeed.
Kristan

Such strength you have.!! So handsome and I'm sorry for your loss, and how life will always be different now.

You are an amzing young man. Stay strong, you will do it.
You are amazing! We are all pulling for you Ryan! ❤️🙏
Honest to God, y'all should be ashamed of yourself going after a story from this poor guy in the ICU Christ sake....leave him alone and let him heal.
Little Miss Stamper he probably agreed to do it ever think of that
Clearly he AGREED to do it since he is in the video...what I'm saying is they should of had more respect than to of ASKED in the first damn place while he is still in the bloody ICU just so they can get a news story!!
You should feel ashamed also for giving them what they want; Views.
Stay strong Ryan, support from Melville Saskatchewan and the Melville Mils
Very sad indeed
Stay strong young man !
You are an inspiration to everyone and with your attitude you will heal with a new path in life.
