Already free after being part of a robbery and car chase that killed a bunch of people. Seems like a pretty clear example of a criminal that we would surely want to deport out of our country.

Passenger in deadly Highway 401 wrong-way crash pleads guilty, released on probation
A Toronto-area man involved in a robbery in April — leading to a high-speed police chase and a deadly wrong-way crash on a busy highway — has been released on probation and warned he may still face "immigration consequences."
The fiery, multi-vehicle collision on Highway 401 in Whitby, Ont., which remains under investigation by Ontario's police watchdog, killed four people, including an infant.
An Oshawa, Ont., court heard last month that he acted as the "lookout" during the liquor store robbery in nearby Clarington on April 29, according to records reviewed by CBC News.
"I understand that … there's the potential for immigration consequences," Wood said. Gill's status in Canada is unclear.
Speaking through a Punjabi-language interpreter in court last month, he pleaded guilty to three counts, including the lesser charge of theft under $5,000. Other charges were withdrawn.
Gill also pleaded guilty to breaching probation and a release order. Court heard it was the second time in the past two years that he was found to be breaching his bail conditions, as Gill struggled with opioid addiction.
Left unsaid during the November hearing was the deadly cascade of events set off after Gill and an accomplice stole $1,602.80 worth of booze.
According to Durham Regional Police, a suspect pulled a knife on an off-duty officer at the store, then took off in a U-Haul van. The chase ended in a multi-vehicle crash that killed three-month-old Aditya Vivaan and his two paternal grandparents visiting from India. The infant's parents were also both injured.
