A second psychiatrist is expected to tell a trial today that the man accused of driving a city bus into a Montreal-area daycare should not be held criminally responsible for killing two children and injuring six others.

Dr. Sylvain Faucher is scheduled to take the stand for Day 2 of the trial of Pierre Ny St-Amand, 53, who is accused of ramming the bus into the Laval, Que., daycare on Feb. 8, 2023, killing a four-year-old boy and a five-year-old girl.
