Refugee Protection Act: Profound Remorse

Montreal Gazette Dept: Steve Ellis, who was convicted this spring of breach of trust and violating the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, delivered a personal statement on the final day of his sentencing hearing yesterday, according to Montreal Gazette. "I wish that I could turn back the clock. ... I will never forgive myself," he told Justice Thea Herman during the hearing at a downtown Toronto Superior Court and a disgraced former immigration adjudicator caught offering a refugee claimant a favourable ruling in exchange for sex says he feels "profound remorse." "I never thought in 1,000 years that I would ever be in this position," Ellis said, noting all his achievements over the course of his life's work have been "washed away" by the shame of his 2006 crime. As reported in the news.
