Judicial review dismissed; RPD reasonably found the applicant lacked credibility.
The applicants, a mother from Haiti and her minor daughter, sought judicial review of a Refugee Protection Division decision rejecting their claim for refugee protection.
The mother claimed refugee protection based on threats from a former colleague whom she reported to their employer.
The RPD found the principal applicant lacked credibility due to inconsistencies in her testimony regarding the timeline of events and her employment.
The RPD also concluded there was a lack of prospective risk if she returned to Haiti and determined there was no credible basis for the claim.
The Federal Court found the RPD's decisions on credibility, risk, and lack of credible basis to be reasonable and dismissed the application for judicial review.
