Judge Slams CBSA for Deportation Delay | Edmonton News
Description
A Ontario judge is slamming the Canada Border Services Agency for ignoring a deportation order against Manjeet Singh — a man jailed for serious LCBO thefts and now facing a 12-month sentence — after years of inaction. Singh, who entered Canada illegally in 2016 and spiraled into crime during the pandemic, has been legally barred from LCBOs and has a deportation order dating back to 2022. The judge, frustrated by CBSA’s failure to act despite Singh’s criminal record, warned courts may rethink deportation timelines in sentencing. He handed down a tougher sentence than requested — 12 months for theft plus 60 days for probation breach — saying organized theft from a taxpayer-owned store demands serious consequences.
