An Ontario judge has sentenced two Indian immigrants to house arrest for two years less a day after they ran truck driving schools that didn’t offer entry-level students the minimum required training.

Ontario Superior Court Justice Pierre Roger called the fraudulent driving schools “an elaborate scheme,” which involved nearly 100 truck driver students over two years.
