The applicant sought judicial review of a decision by the Immigration Division finding him inadmissible to Canada for misrepresentation under paragraph 40(1)(a) of the IRPA.
The applicant had failed to disclose a previous arrest on his application for a Canadian visitor visa, which he attributed to his immigration consultant and his own failure to review the application.
The Immigration Division found the misrepresentation material and concluded the innocent misrepresentation exception did not apply.
The Federal Court held the decision was reasonable and dismissed the application.
