    1. So some idiot thought it was best that as her clothing was strangling her. She should be carried back down the mountain attached to the chair lift

      Ski trips used to be so normal for schools … it seems the boards or schools in my area (York Region) no longer have ski trips.

      I’m also surprised the lift operator didn’t hit the emergency stop when she got entangled?

      >Fournel said the girl’s clothing became tangled as she attempted to dismount a double chairlift at the top of Centre Vorlage’s hill near Wakefield around 2 p.m. Wednesday. He said the chairlift continued operating as the girl hung from it.

    3. Sounds as though her scarf was caught. How the hell did the teachers or volunteers or employees let a child on a ski lift wearing a scarf. What a tragedy.

    4. The lift operator at the top of the hill should of stopped the lift immediately. It’s literally their job. I don’t know the circumstances, but it appears a giant ball was dropped here.. Very sad indeed. I hope the child pulls through

      I was a lift operator at Vorlage many many(25) years ago on the bunny hill.

      I work on industrial control systems and several years ago I was looking at a chair lift program (not this one) and the code was shockingly lacking in safety. Unfortunately this accident does not surprise me.

      I get that cost would be huge but the fact that chairlifts are still in use compared to gondolas is kind of amazing from a liability perspective. I have stricter safety requirements at my job.

    7. I’m guessing a scarf got caught and strangled her, it happened to fast for the operator to stop and the let her suffocate on the way down. 😢😡
      Never wear a scarf skiing or snowmobiling. Wear a scarf when you are walking around outside.

    8. The only time I went skiing in my life was school trip to Vorlage. It was 19 years ago. The ski lift looked rickety and was uncomfortable. One time the lift operator had to signal me to open the safety bar before reaching the top.

      Not surprised this happened.
