A lawyer for Jaskirat Singh Sidhu, the truck driver responsible for the Humboldt Broncos bus crash, announced that the Immigration and Refugee Board has denied his request to remain in Canada as a refugee, leading to potential deportation to India. The Canada Border Services Agency is now obligated to remove Sidhu promptly, though his lawyer plans to seek a deferral.

The tragic crash in April 2018 resulted in 16 fatalities and 13 injuries.
