REFUGEE PROTECTION
Canada offers refugee protection to some people in Canada who fear persecution or who would be in danger if they had to leave. Some dangers they may face include:
- Torture
- Risk to their life
- Risk of cruel and unusual treatment or punishment
A refugee claimant is someone who is outside their home country or the country they normally live in. They’re not able to return because of a well-founded fear of persecution based on race, religion, political opinion, nationality, being part of a social group, such as women or people of a particular sexual orientation….
If you feel you could face one of these risks if you go back to your home country or the country where you normally live, you may be able to seek protection in Canada as a refugee.
REFUGEE APPEALS
A refugee claimant may file and perfect an appeal against a Refugee Protection Division (RPD) decision which rejected the person’s claim for refugee protection provided statutory restrictions do not apply.
An appeal may be brought to the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) on the grounds that the Refugee Protection Division (RPD) committed an error of law, of fact or of mixed law and fact.
Most refugee claimants have a right of Appeal at the RAD. There is no right of appeal to the RAD for decisions that have No Credible Basis. The Refugee Protection Division (RPD) must state in its reasons for the decision that there is no credible basis for the claim if it is of the opinion that there was no credible or trustworthy evidence on which it could have made a favourable decision.
There is no right of appeal to the RAD for a Manifestly Unfounded Claim and where an exception to the safe third country agreement applies to the claimant.
FEDERAL COURT JUDICIAL REVIEW
FEDERAL COURT JUDICIAL REVIEW
The judicial review process is consistent with Canada’s obligation to ensure that decisions made under the Act comply with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the principles of fairness and non-discrimination. The judicial review process gives a person who is affected by a negative decision the means to have the reasonableness of that decision reviewed by the Federal Court.
Judicial review of a decision is not an appeal on the merits of the case. The Court cannot substitute its decision for that of the decision maker. Rather, the Court is examining the process that led to the decision and determining if this process was fair and reasonable. If the Court determines that it was not, the Court may only quash the decision in question and order a redetermination.
