Judicial review of deportation order based on foreign criminal conviction dismissed.
The applicant sought judicial review of an Immigration Division decision finding him inadmissible and issuing a deportation order based on a US conviction for domestic assault.

Judicial review dismissed; IAD reasonably denied H&C relief for residency breach.
The applicant, a citizen of Burkina Faso, sought judicial review of a decision by the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) confirming a removal order.
The applicant spent only 76 days in Canada out of a five-year reference period.
The IAD determined that there were insufficient humanitarian and compassionate considerations to warrant special relief under paragraph 67(1)(c) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.
The Federal Court dismissed the application, finding the IAD's analysis transparent, reasonable, and justified on the facts and law.
Judicial review of RAD decision dismissed as negative credibility findings were reasonable.
The applicant, a citizen of Haiti, sought judicial review of a Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) decision confirming the rejection of his refugee claim.
The claim was based on alleged death threats resulting from his involvement in dismissing employees.
The RAD found the applicant not credible due to inconsistencies in his account and his failure to provide reasonably available corroborating documentary evidence, such as employment records.
The Federal Court found the RAD's credibility findings to be reasonable, transparent, and justified.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
Judicial review dismissed; RAD reasonably found applicant had permanent residence in Brazil.
The applicants sought judicial review of a RAD decision upholding the RPD's determination that they were excluded from refugee protection under s. 98 of the IRPA and Article 1E of the Refugee Convention.
The RAD concluded the female applicant had indeterminate permanent residence in Brazil.
The applicant argued her status in Brazil was temporary, as she had to renew it and had no housing or employment there.
The Federal Court found the RAD reasonably relied on documentary evidence showing Brazilian permanent residence for Haitians is automatically renewed without a requirement to reapply.
