Wa Cheng and Yue Yun Gao

Yue Yun Gao: On July 22, 2011, Yang, 40, and his wife, Yue Yun Gao, 39, went to the immigration holding centre on Airport Rd. and posted a $40,000 bond to secure the release of Wa Cheng, a man from Changle in Fujian Province. Cheng was later deported from Canada, ruled inadmissible because of his criminal past abroad, according to Metro News. Yang and Gao dilemma offers a cautionary tale to others asked to bail out someone being held on immigration law violations and When a friend in the U.S. called him one day four years ago to ask for his help in getting a man he barely knew out of immigration detention in Toronto, Jian Feng Yang didn t hesitate, because they came from the same hometown in China. Two years later, the Toronto couple have found themselves owing $40,000 to Ottawa the result of what their lawyer describes as a lack of procedural fairness in forfeiture by Canada Border Services Agency (www.immigrantscanada.com).
