CALGARY — The truck driver who caused the horrific bus crash involving the Humboldt Broncos junior hockey team has been ordered to be deported. The decision came Friday at an Immigration and Refugee Board hearing in Calgary for Jaskirat Singh Sidhu.

CALGARY — The truck driver who caused the horrific bus crash involving the Humboldt Broncos junior hockey team has been ordered to be deported.

Sidhu’s lawyer had said the decision was a foregone conclusion, as all that's required to deport Sidhu is proof that he's not a Canadian citizen and he committed a serious crime.The rookie truck driver from Calgary barrelled through a stop sign and into the path of the junior hockey team's bus at a rural intersection near Tisdale, Sask., in 2018.Sidhu pleaded guilty to dangerous driving offences and was sentenced to eight years in prison. He was granted full parole last year.

Two years ago, the Canada Border Services Agency recommended deportation, and Greene went to court to fight it.
