As much as people don't like it, this won't be a 2nd degree murder. It will be a driving\negligence cause death. If it's an adult, probably somewhere around 5-6 years jail.

I guess it would depend on what the crown wants to seek (and what they think they can successfully prosecute). Witnesses describe it as them thinking about what to do, then choosing to run her down.
That sounds like intent to me.
