Toronto hate crime suspect denied refugee status in 2018

“Government records obtained by Global News show that Osman Azizov is an Azerbaijani citizen who, accompanied by his parents, crossed into Canada between official border points near Lacolle, Que., in 2017.
The Immigration and Refugee Board rejected the Azizov family’s asylum claims in 2018, the Refugee Appeal Division denied their appeal, and the Federal Court declined to review the case in 2019, the records indicate.
…
But a friend told Global News that after the family’s refugee claims were unsuccessful, they applied to stay in Canada on [humanitarian and compassionate grounds](https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/humanitarian-compassionate-considerations.html) and were accepted last year.”
I mean you can’t make this shit up, just complete incompetence on so many levels.
Also I wonder what the common denominator between all these ISIS and Islamic state related attacks and crimes going on around the world are? probably nothing and we should just keep ignoring it
I wonder how often people bring their kids to the hearings and play dumb. It bought them 3 extra months while they rescheduled.
They were denied refugee status three times in a row but somehow got residence on humanitarian and compassionate grounds, which per the government website is an “exceptional” measure and “not simply another means of applying for permanent resident status in Canada.”
Absolutely wild. Why do we even have an immigration system with multiple layers of rulings and appeals if it’s going to be overruled for people like *this.*
>They didn’t stay in the U.S. because “I heard that Canada is better in terms of refugee asylum,” he added.
They should have been sent back across the border to the United States to begin with because they do not meet an exception under the Canada-U.S. Safe Third Country Agreement. Shopping for countries to claim refugee status in is already a sign that there’s something else going on beyond being a “refugee.”
