to see whether or not they would allow him further stay in Canada. This would have been his third appearance before them after his first appeals werent approved. My lawyer had worked on the case and thought we would be in a better place, said Gomez. They hoped for the best but in the end they were told that Gomez would be deported and this was definite. I didnt know how to take it, I was hoping he was joking but I cried, like that ugly crying, said Sophie. The date for his leave was set for November 28th and that was the only thing they knew. But then they decided to get married so she would be able to sponsor him. Ever since 2007, the conservative government have had this agenda of pulling immigrants out of the country nation by nation. It started when they enforced legislation that immigrants from Mexico wishing to enter into Canada would need a valid visa. This would restrict the amount of refugee claims coming from this country. Angelica Gonzales. She herself is an immigrant. Born in Colombia, Gonzales fought her way into the Canadian system legally and was able to withstand the pressures of those around her. In Colombia she attended university for Law and attained her degree, so when she came to Canada it was not a matter of what would she do, it was how hard would she work for it. She studied in school and was able to get her law degree here. Proving that the system has advantages she now owns her own law firm, I am employing people. In the summer of 2012, they passed the controversial Bill C-31 meant to make it even harder struggle for refugee claimants in Canada. Passed on June 29th, Bill C-31 was deemed unfair by immigration lawyers because it was mainly targeting countries such as Mexico and Colombia, It is a restriction to immigration to the asylum system in Canada I feel like the government is cherry-picking.One of the major assets the new Bill had, was that the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) would have un-requisited power to claim whether or not a country is deemed safe or unsafe. The new Bill would only increase the amount of denied application for asylum. And that is has, with not only Gomez being deported, there has been a steady increase in deportation to Latin America since 2007. Its November 28th. Danny and Sophie are just looking at each other. None of them know what to say, they are just held in this tight embrace. They have gone through so much in the two years they have been together and this will be the longest break away from each other. They are gambling their love for each other and hoping it will work. Why would anyone whether it be a lawyer fighting for their or Danny and Sophie putting themselves through so much stress? Its a simple answer; love.
