Truck driver Sukhwinder Sidhu, who pleaded guilty to dangerous driving that resulted in the death of Alexandra Paul, a former Canadian Olympic figure skater, in 2023, was sentenced to 2.5 years in jail. Sidhu has also been barred from driving for seven years.
Seven cars were involved in the crash and multiple people were injured, including Paul's 10-month-old son who suffered a broken leg. Before he was sentenced, Sidhu apologized to the victims and said he took full responsibility for what happened. "I know there is nothing I can say that will fix this or make the grief any better. I understand that an apology can never be enough for a loss like this," Sidhu said in tears.
