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

Jaskirat Singh Sidhu is taken out of the Kerry Vickar Centre by the RCMP following his sentencing for the crash, in Melfort, Sask., Friday, March 22, 2019. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Kayle Neis

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. "This is part of the sadness of the whole process. We're left with a situation where permanent residents have no rights whatsoever to have their personal circumstances considered," Greene said.
