  • An Affront to the Charter and Canada's Collective Conscience?
    COMMENTAIRE CANADA'S NEW IMMIGRATION ACT: AN AFFRONT TO THE CHARTER AND CANADA'S COLLECTIVE CONSCIENCE? 1994 CanLIIDocs 114 par Mark Anthony DRUMBL* Cet article examinera la constitutionnalité du paragraphe 46.01(1) et du sous-alinéa 19(1)(c.1)(i) de la Loi sur l’immigration. Le paragraphe 46.01(1) prévoit que sont désormais exclus du processus de détermination du statut de réfugié au Canada tous ceux qui sont passés par un tiers pays «sûr» pour arriver au Canada, à la seule exception de ceux qui ne s’y trouvaient qu’en vue d’un vol de correspondance. En vertu de l’art. 19(1)(c.1)(i), toute revendication du statut de réfugié au Canada est irrecevable si l’intéressé a commis une infraction criminelle dans son pays d'origine. L’auteur soutient que ces dispositions violent les garanties procédurales de justice fondamentale prévues à l'article 7 de la Charte canadienne des droits et libertés. De plus, il soulève la possibilité que les droits conférés aux articles 11(d), 11(g), 12, 14 et 15(1) sont également enfreints par la Loi sur l’immigration. Ensuite, il aborde la question de savoir si ces violations constituent des limites raisonnables au sens de l’article premier de la Charte. Etant donné que les questions relatives à la politique d’immigration se trouvent actuellement au centre de nos débats de société, il devient de plus en plus difficile de maintenir l'équilibre entre les buts de la Loi et les obligations imposées sur le Canada par la Charte et par la Convention des nations unies relative aux réfugiés.

The Official Opposition of the 35th Parliament, of whom I am a member, has demonstrated [Translation] that the lack of legislation on democratic party financing can only create a vicious circle with a simple, obvious logic.
