Immigration: Wife Sophie

French Island Dept: His daughter, Rachel, was deemed "medically inadmissible" because she has cerebral palsy, according to Montreal Gazette. Barlagne moved to Montreal from the French island of Guadeloupe in 2005 on a work permit after a Canadian embassy official in Paris persuaded him Montreal would be great place to expand a computer software business. The family has settled in Montreal, and his wife, Sophie, had been teaching French to immigrants on a voluntary basis and david Barlagne's family made headlines across the French-speaking world last year after Canadian immigration officials rejected his application to stay here permanently - saying his 8-year-old handicapped daughter would be an "excessive burden" on the state's social services. Her "excessive burden" on social services would amount to $5,259 a year in special educational costs. As reported in the news.
