🇨🇦 Declared a danger to Canada, yet still handed more time

A refugee admitted in 2019 is convicted by 2022 of trafficking large amounts of methamphetamine and fentanyl and committing sexual assault, serves three years, is officially deemed a present and future danger by Immigration, and still gets extra court time to fight deportation. That is not a border system. That is a self-harm ritual with robes and paperwork. Mahir Yahya Sharif, a permanent resident from the refugee stream, now argues removal is too harsh because Somalia is dangerous and unfamiliar, as reported.

Justice Kevin Feth worries deportation would be unduly punitive. Funny how the punitive part always lands on Canadians first: fentanyl in our streets, sexual violence in our communities, endless legal bills for a man the state itself says is an unacceptable risk. This is Trudeau-era migration ideology in one case file: import first, vet later, litigate forever, deport maybe never. Refugee policy was sold as compassion. In practice, it has become a machine for diluting sovereignty and forcing the public to subsidize its own endangerment.
