Immigration Lawyers Challenge Bill C-12's Asylum Law
Description
Immigration lawyers in Canada are challenging the new asylum law, Bill C-12, in Federal Court, arguing it violates Charter rights. The law blocks refugee claims after a year of entry and shuts down options for irregular border crossers after June 3, 2025. Lawyers report panicked clients fearing deportation, especially vulnerable groups like domestic violence survivors and LGBTQ+ individuals. The new process involves pre-removal risk assessments by less-trained officers with no appeals, causing uncertainty and highlighting cracks in Canadas refugee safety net.
