179 days after murdering someone and fleeing the scene. Talk about a slap on the wrist.

I dont think the driver desrves to be banished from Canada for this, which seems to be a prime factor in the sentencing:

Latimer also pointed out that while Feng has been in Canada for 20 years, as a permanent resident it is very likely she will be subject to a removal order to China once she completes her sentence.

The judge said a prison sentence of six months or more would cause Feng to lose her right to appeal such an order.
