ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
We discuss three recent developments:
IRCC’s abrupt addition and removal of new requirements for C20 reciprocal-employment work permits;
CBSA officers checking the immigration status of participants at a Calgary protest, with 12 people identified as potentially inadmissible; and
The hundreds of procedural fairness letters being sent to former IRGC conscripts who may now face inadmissibility allegations based on compulsory military service.
We examine whether applicants and their lawyers can realistically keep pace with constantly shifting policies, what authority CBSA has to demand proof of status at a protest, whether people awaiting restoration can be removed, and why Parliament—not individual officers, applicants or courts—may need to resolve the consequences of mandatory IRGC service.
The episode concludes with audience questions about lengthy security screening, mandamus applications and whether Canada’s immigration-security measures reflect a coherent national security strategy.
