Tamil Tigers: Migrant Ships

Gurpreet Badh Dept: The ruling says that because the government publicly connected the Tamil migrant ships to the threat of terrorism from the Tamil Tigers, everyone on board was tarred by the same brush, according to CTV. Each and every one of them is exposed to the same level of danger, said B384 s lawyer, Gurpreet Badh, adding that he thinks the government overreacted and canada s Federal Court has upheld a ruling that warns tough talk by the Harper government against Tamil migrants is putting them in more danger back in Sri Lanka and making it harder to send them back. You were on a boat with Tamil Tigers, says the government of Canada. I therefore find that you face more than the mere possibility of interrogation and thus torture in Sri Lanka, Immigration and Refugee Board member Michal Mivasair said in the ruling of a migrant who can only be identified as B384.
