A federal judge has reserved his decision in the deportation case of the truck driver who caused the deadly Humboldt Broncos bus crash.

    or prison for the chump you suckered into cheap labour.

    I’m not seeing the ‘or’ bit. The article says the driver was already sentenced to nine years back in 2019. So it might be prison and deportation.

    It also says he was a new permanent resident when the crime was committed. I’m surprised how they can so easily deport someone who has PR.

    allow this situation to happen and all its gonna be is a civil fine for you

    Alas, this is the real problem. And this case/hearing isn’t going to affect the precedent on that, it will only affect the precedent for the future chumps.

      He would have become inadmissible and lost his PR status for serious criminality due to his conviction in 2019

        If anything, I would like there to be way more press coverage and investigative journalism and legal scrutiny paid to this little mom and pop friendly neighbourhood immigrant-staffed (like abusing as well) trucking company.

        They really skated by while leaving this poor guy out to dry and down the river.
