🇨🇦 After 42 years of trying, Canada loses another bid to deport alleged top Mafia boss in Toronto

Forty-two years, 20,000 pages, crashing IRB computers, a convicted second-degree murderer on lifetime parole, and Ottawa still cannot close the file. That is the real story here. The state that can micromanage every law-abiding Canadian down to forms, fees, and speech codes somehow turns into a bumbling clerk when it comes to removing a non-citizen it has been chasing since 1984, as reported. If the case is weak, that is an indictment of the bureaucracy. If the case is strong but still collapses, that is an indictment of the bureaucracy too.

Either way, the lesson is brutal: Canada’s immigration and public-safety machinery is built to grind forever, not to defend the country. Decades of hearings, appeals, reversals, and procedural theatre produced the usual liberal-state masterpiece: paralysis. A man born in Italy, never a Canadian citizen, convicted of murder, first ordered out in 1984, and still here in 2026 after the government again failed to prove its own allegations. This is what sovereignty erosion looks like in practice: endless institutions, no finality, no state capacity, no national interest.
