Opinion
Date: 20120820 Docket: IMM-6589-12 Citation: 2012 FC 1006 Ottawa, Ontario, August 20, 2012 PRESENT: The Honourable Mr. Justice Shore BETWEEN: CHANG WOO LIM, KYUNGSUN BAE,HYELOK JUN LIM Applicants and THE MINISTER OF CITIZENSHIP AND IMMIGRATION Respondent REASONS FOR ORDER AND ORDER [1] The Applicants seek a stay of removal scheduled for Wednesday, August 29, 2012. Their stay application is linked to theirleave application in respect of a negative Pre-Removal Risk Assessment [PRRA]. [2] The Applicants, a couple with their son, are in Canada since 2005.
The Refugee Protection Division of the Immigration andRefugee Board [IRB] denied their claim. It found that state protection is available to them in their country of origin.
The Federal Courtdenied leave on the basis of the IRB decision, itself. [3] The Federal Court of Appeal in a recent 2011 decision has specified that the mootness of a PRRA application cannot serve asa basis for irreparable harm (Canada (Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness) v Shpati, 2011 FCA 286). [4] As is recognized, the conjunctive tripartite test of the Toth v Canada (Minister of Employment and Immigration) (1988), (FCA), 86 NR 302 (FCA) decision must be fully satisfied for a stay to be granted. If only one of the three criteria isunmet, no stay is to be granted.
In this case, all three criteria have not been met. As a result, the stay of removal, on the basis of thePRRA application, is dismissed. ORDER
THIS COURT ORDERS that the Applicants’ stay removal application be dismissed. “Michel M.J.
