A Canadian court has paused the deportation of Jaskirat Singh Sidhu, the truck driver responsible for the 2018 Humboldt Broncos crash, pending a review of his case.

Key Points on the Case

• The Incident: In April 2018, Jaskirat Singh Sidhu, a permanent resident from India, ran a stop sign in Saskatchewan, causing a crash that killed 16 people and injured 13.
• Conviction: Sidhu was sentenced to eight years for dangerous driving, granted full parole in 2023, but subsequently faced deportation proceedings for serious criminality.
• Current Status: A Canadian court paused his removal on April 25, 2026, due to an active legal challenge regarding the consideration of his personal circumstances and a child with medical needs.
• Previous Order: The Immigration and Refugee Board previously ordered his removal, which the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) had planned to act upon before the last-minute stay.
