Jaskirat Singh Sidhu's application accepted by Federal Court judge at hearing on Friday
Days from being deported, an 11th-hour decision by a Federal Court justice on Friday means that Jaskirat Singh Sidhu, who was found responsible for the fatal Humboldt Broncos bus crash in 2018, can stay in Canada for a little while longer.
Sidhu was behind the wheel of the semi-truck that blew through an oversized stop sign with a flashing yellow light, right into the path of the Saskatchewan junior hockey team’s bus, on April 6, 2018. The collision killed 16 players and staff and injured 13 others.
He was scheduled to be deported and board a plane for India early Monday morning.
However, in a decision after a hearing on Friday, Federal Court Justice Jocelyne Gagné granted a temporary deferral pending the outcome of an earlier Federal Court case, which challenged the Canada Border Services Agency's (CBSA) decision not to delay Sidhu's deportation while he waits for a ruling on an application to stay in Canada on humanitarian and compassionate grounds.
His lawyers say it could be several months before a decision is made...

Sentenced to death is the only way
“16 people”
16 kids. Hockey players. On their way in life
Myriads of grieving family members as well- That man ruined the lives of a great many people.
And judgies keep the pain coming for victims families
Judge is as bad as the perp
Deportation? Maybe his cremated remains after he dies in prison after multiple life sentences.
Pity he did not show that to the people he killed.
They where white kids so not really a problem in Canada, apparently.
Deported???? How about EXECUTED?
Canada is a lost cause.
You don’t hate the Canadian Government and their “Laurentian Elites” enough.
Naa just leave him under the prison
So an illegal who kills 16 kids simply gets a free one-way ticket home? Did they give him food money too?
Not even “a free flight”. He’s fighting to stay in Canada.
Canada is lost too.
Deported?! They should have hung him!
We can’t deport a killer because he’s waiting for some preferred, stray country to maybe take him in so he doesn’t have to return to his homeland?
> Deported???? How about EXECUTED?
Execute him then deport him.
WOW! Condolences to family and friends of the victims.
Hunt him down and dispose of him.
