Vic Toews: Immigration And Refugee

Tamil Tigers Dept: During that time, the man -who can only be identified as B189 due to a publication ban -joined the Tamil Tigers' naval wing and engaged in a three-hour battle with a Sri Lankan ship, during which he was shot in the leg, said IRB spokeswoman Melissa Anderson, who attended Tuesday's hearing. The migrant -who did not speak at Tuesday's hearing and remained impassive throughout, according to Anderson -has the option of asking the Federal Court of Canada to review the decision, according to Calgary Herald. "The Immigration and Refugee Board has determined the subject to be a risk to our national security and is not admissible to Canada under our laws," Public Safety Minister Vic Toews said in a statement Tuesday. "Today's decision is an unmitigated victory for the rule of law and one Tamil migrant out of the hundreds who came ashore in B.C. last summer was ordered deported Tuesday after he was found by the Immigration and Refugee Board to have been a member of the banned Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam from 1991 to 1996. He is the first of the 492 migrants who arrived on the MV Sun Sea last year to be deported due to links to the Tigers. His deportation gives a measure of vindication to the Harper government, which has claimed repeatedly that some of the Sun Sea migrants are suspected of engaging in terrorism. As reported in the news.
