IS THE DECISION TO DEPORT MR. SIDHU A REFLECTION OF OUR VALUES AS A SOCIETY? “Jaskirat Singh Sidhu was handed an eight-year sentence in 2019 after pleading guilty to dangerous driving causing death and bodily harm in the Saskatchewan crash that killed 16 people and injured 13 others. He was new to truck driving and had been on the job less than a month before the tragedy. In a federal court ruling released on Thursday, a judge denied Sidhu’s request to set aside a March 2022 Canada Border Services Agency decision calling for his deportation. Sidhu is a permanent resident, and under federal law, can be subject to deportation in the instance of a serious criminal offence. He was granted parole earlier this year.” (Josh Lynn CTV)

JURY DUTY IS NO WALK IN THE PARK – “For most citizens figuratively plucked off the street to serve as jurors, being plonked down in a courtroom and experiencing a real blood-and-guts murder trial can be jarring. It’s one thing to sit back with a bag of popcorn and enjoy a Hollywood slasher movie, quite another to delve, in sometimes excruciating and bloody detail, into a horrific crime committed in your own community, at a location you might know and where you, your family and friends might even frequent.”
