The applicants filed a motion for a stay of removal, scheduled for the end of the week.
The principal applicant suffered a severe work-related accident in Canada on an oil stack in Alberta, resulting in permanent and serious disability that put the family's livelihood at grave risk.
The Federal Court found that the applicants satisfied all three criteria of the Toth test for a stay of removal.
The motion for a stay of removal was granted until the final determination of the pending judicial review.
