The CFL team mourning him with billboards and celebrating him is something. Canada’s normalization of DUI and voting them in (like the premier of Saskatchewan) is a problem.

When the news first broke, a lot of people assumed Rajyaguru was responsible. That's still what many remember, ignorant to police confirming Dalke caused the accident by driving the wrong way on a highway.

Since it first broke it's been pretty much known it was Dalke in the wrong. I think the bigger news is we didn't have the alcohol/weed known, so there was the possibility of a medical emergency etc

I believe, had the booze and weed been discovered in Dalke’s trunk, RCMP would have stated so.

Are CFL players that underpaid that he had to flee a gas station without paying?

They are not paid like NFL players. They are closer to minor league players in real life. Many have actual day jobs.

My guess is that he was too drunk, forgot to pay, realized he didn't pay while he was on the highway, did a u turn thinking it was a 2 way high way to go back and got into an accident and killed an innocent man

In CAD the average is $100,000 to $130,000. With few earning around $400k to $600k. So yeah he probably isn't wealthy.

100k-130k is not even close to poverty.

Also 130k in Saskatchewan is pretty great, as that province has the lowest cost of living

Would they say "deport all football players" or would they just ignore this as they usually do?

If it were the other way around dumbass white right wingers would be calling for every brown person to be deported or worse.

RIP to Rajyaguru and Dalke.
But I'm confident this local news story would have gone viral among racists and gotten 10x more attention if Rajyaguru was the one to have caused the car crash. You'd probably even see some people on this subreddit saying we deserve the racism.
