Wow. You feel bad for the families of everyone involved, but you look at the sentence to a guy who made a pretty big one time mistake, and the remorse he showed and you still give him that? I think he got railroaded by the prosecution to put it lightly. It's not all about money, but what does that sentence truly accomplish? It's a stretch to say it's going to deter distracted driving. It's simply punitive to the individual who's clearly remorseful. I think a sentence like that is shameful as a Canadian.
