Are any pictures showing emergency shutes deployed?

Or was this a cargo plane?

No pics of that; we've all been looking at traffic cams from across the 401.

I'm watching CityPulse 24 from Toronto, and they're saying that the plane may not have been able to brake properly on landing, while the expert on the phone is not certain of that.

The plane apparently should have stopped on the grassy area prior to heading into the ditch/ravine/creek bed area.

Close ups have too much heavy smoke to show whether slides deployed, but they aren't visible clearly either.

No, not cargo...Air France Airbus 340 daily Paris/CDG to Toronto flight...

Pilot Co-pilot just reported as being off ALIVE and being 'debriefed' according to Global News that was reporting on FNC just now.
