In the article from the link posted, there has been no fault determined yet in the Humboldt crash. From what I understand, it is standard procedure to suspend operations in a situation like this.

This is their business. Their way of supporting themselves. I understand the tragedy and the sorrow that remains with so many but life does go on and there has to be a way of carrying on business.

I could see if the trucking company was determined to be at fault but this simply isn’t the case. They are, apparently, trying to carry on business in the least disruptive way possible but are finding out that people are hunting them down no matter what.

An unfortunate situation all around.

According to report giving back on April 11, 2018 (link below).
Alberta Transportation Minister wrote:Alberta transportation minister Brian Mason confirms Adesh Deol Trucking Ltd. was suspended indefinitely by the Alberta Transportation ministry pending an investigation.

So is that investigation separate from the accident investigation, or the same one. If it is the same one then that suspension should still be ongoing.


Added later: or has the owner started up another trucking company, just wondering.... no proof of this

If the Company did anything that contributed to the crash then I would say yes and he should never be able to work in the industry again. If everything he did was above board and legal then he can continue in business.

Well looks like proof to me, something is very fishy here:
