He had already served his time for drug conviction. Stop judging.
If it's grounds for him to lose his residency then that's that. Nobody deserves to die over this though.
Had this guy been an American in Canada what would you have said? You wouldn't want a criminal to go back home?
It's not without a trial in immigration court.
He's a legal resident, he was in his home when he was arrested.
Why don't you go back to your home?
Ah ok I see what you mean.
So a court can't just decide whether a resident's status is revoked after committing a crime? There has to be a trial? Especially if the person was already convicted of a crime?
Can't a person lose their permanent residency in the same way in Canada?
I'm really asking here. Not being sarcastic or anything.
There are qualifying crimes but they still go through immigration court that basically put it on paper and determine when and where they'll be deported or if they're going to be granted a waiver for whatever reason.
Yes. Same basic structure certain crimes are qualifying most are not. The Canadian center for refugees has sort of an fyi of you're curious.
And yes most countries have the same basic structure and even citizens can have their citizenship revoked for certain crimes usually like treason and the like and be forced into statelessness.
I see. Thanks for the explanation.
