Refugee Protection Act: Refugee Claimants

Citizenship And Immigration Dept: Citizenship and Immigration recently issued a bulletin to field officers, saying that flight from military service in another country may make certain refugee claimants inadmissible, according to The Star. But the bulletin stops short of imposing a flat ban on deserters entering the country and oTTAWA Canadian immigration officers have been told that deserters, specifically those from the United States military, are not welcome in Canada. The new directive points to existing provisions of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act to make its case and also notes that desertion is a crime under both Canadian and U.S. military law. As reported in the news.
