    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and Refugee Board issued a deportation order in May for Jaskirat Singh Sidhu and his permanent resident status was revoked.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] on compassionate grounds and I say that respectful of the families who will forever grieve,” O’Toole said.

      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.

    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?

    Given the current situation correlating population, housing, and social services we should be looking to deport anyone we can that’s not a healthcare worker or a construction worker.

    If they aren’t citizens we owe them nothing.
