Brian Dube and Sam Burgio

Sam Burgio: Sam Burgio pleaded guilty last March to swindling almost one million dollars from immigrants hoping to become Canadians, according to CTV. Today, he delivers water, lugging heavy bottles for his wife business. His lawyer Brian Dube says of his client, "He had a significant fall from grace." A former Windsor immigration consultant, facing a long list of fraud charges, is set to be sentenced after final submissions were heard in court today. Only five years ago, Burgio was a successful immigration consultant, well respected in the community. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
