So why do the other criminals not get deported? The ones who have multiple offences might not even be PR status yet.

At what point does following this guy around in everything he does stop being considered as reporting and start being considered stalking?

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The truck driver who caused the deadly Humboldt Broncos bus crash has applied to have his permanent resident status returned.

The Immigration and Refugee Board issued a deportation order in May for Jaskirat Singh Sidhu and his permanent resident status was revoked.

In 2018, while living in Calgary, the rookie truck driver barrelled through a stop sign and into the path of the junior hockey team's bus at a rural intersection near Tisdale, Sask.

Calgary MP George Chahal is also asking federal politicians to block the deportation, saying Sidhu has served his time for the tragic accident.

Former federal Conservative leader Erin O'Toole tweeted in December that Sidhu's deportation will not heal those hurt by the crash.

"I have long believed that he deserved to be granted [permanent residency]Β on compassionate grounds and I say that respectful of the families who will forever grieve," O'Toole said.


The original article contains 426 words, the summary contains 145 words. Saved 66%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Finally something me and o'toole agree on. Dude got fucked by a shitty system for training, made a terrible mistake, owned up to it and served his time. It doesn't make Canada better to deport him.

Wow yeah for real, 100% my view. Was curious, looks like the owner of the trucking company got off with $5000 fine https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humboldt_Broncos_bus_crash after pleading guilty. The people pushing behaviour that leads to incidents like this need to be held to account, What's the company doing now to ensure its drivers comply with regulations? Why did sidhu only get hit with criminal liability if the company isn't complying with regulation?
