Judicial review of deportation order dismissed; applicant failed to establish humanitarian and compassionate relief.
The applicant, a citizen of Portugal with an extensive criminal record, sought judicial review of a decision by the Immigration Appeal Division upholding a deportation order for serious criminality.
The applicant sought humanitarian and compassionate relief, citing his drug addiction and establishment in Canada.
The Federal Court dismissed the application for judicial review, noting that the applicant was improperly asking the Court to reweigh the evidence and that there were no exceptional circumstances to justify interfering with the IAD's reasonable assessment of the Ribic factors.
