Runway 23L, 11000 long. This was not a runway overrun, but rather a runway turnoff excursion. Looks like they may have tried to take one of the high speeds at "too high a speed" for the slick conditions. Nose gear ended up in the mud, no other damage. Best advice I've ever gotten for slick runways - "if you have to add power to turn off the runway, you're at the right speed."
Glad everyone is safe.

FTSB? Never heard of them.
Good reporting, AP / MSNBC!

Transportation Safety Board of Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Since this mishap happened in Canada, maybe they were reporting this organization would be investigating (more than likely in conjunction with the NTSB).
