Jean-Paul Delisle: Lai

Peter Chapman Dept: Mr. Delisle, who testified Wednesday at Mr. Lai deportation hearing, was asked why the government took no action to have Mr. Lai removed from the country, once they had his damaging reports, according to Globe and Mail. No, I don t, Mr. Chapman, Mr. Delisle replied and the information about Mr. Lai was provided to immigration enforcement authorities in early July of 1997 by Jean-Paul Delisle, then a Canadian visa officer in Hong Kong responsible for assessing prospective immigrants suspected of involvement in triad or other illegal activities. Do you have any knowledge why this was not done? persisted Mr. Lai lawyer, Peter Chapman. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
