Jaskirat Singh Sidhu’s lawyer has said there are still numerous other legal procedures to come, and the deportation process could take months or years.

Do trucks with PR cause more accidents than citizens? Do you have a source for your accusation here, or are you just making it up?
I give a fuck. Why have immigrants at all if we aren't benefitting from them. We picked him ahead of others for a reason, who's to say the person we replace him with won't be worse?

It reminds me of something I learned. A good boss doesn't fire someone for making an accidental costly mistake, the damage is done, you may as well keep the person who has learned the lesson really well because they're less likely to do it again than a new person.

Is it pretty widely known that the trucking industry is taking advantage of foreign worker programs and setting low expectations (ex. shitty training, not punishing drivers for substandard practices) to increases profits.

Also, yes, he was picked ahead of others for a reason... perhaps a bad reason, or perhaps, given the current state of the economy, there was no real need for him to begin with. He's not a citizen so he has no right to stay, you've offered no compelling reasons of why he should be allowed.
