Northerners sport jerseys in support of Humboldt Broncos

From Whitehorse, Yukon, to Baker Lake, Nunavut, residents honour those killed in Saskatchewan bus crash

Across the country today, Canadians are taking part in "jersey day" — wearing hockey jerseys in a show of solidarity with the family and friends of those lost and injured when a bus carrying the Humboldt Broncos hockey team collided with a transport truck this weekend.
Those across the North are no exception. Take a look at some shots from jersey day — from Whitehorse to Baker Lake, Nunavut, in our gallery.
