Judicial review granted; claimant cannot be excluded under Article 1E for failing to acquire status.
The applicant sought judicial review of a Refugee Protection Division decision excluding her from refugee protection under Article 1E of the Convention based on her failure to acquire potential permanent residence in Ecuador.
The Federal Court held the decision was unreasonable, as it is improper to exclude claimants based on a lack of effort to obtain status in a third country.
