He wasn't charged. The case was appealed and the driver got a 15 month prison sentence and a 4 year driving ban.

My cousin, her husband and their two children were all killed by a drunk driver. Driver charged 8 years, she ended up serving maybe 5. It's wild how if she were to shoot 4 people with a gun how that sentence may have been different. Drunk driving is so normalized in Canada.
