Does Honduras have any capacity to protect its nationals?
Canada (Federal), Canada
The following excerpt is from Chacon v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration), 2007 FC 717 (CanLII):
The courts have clearly held that the state should be presumed capable of protecting its nationals (Ward v. Canada, 1993 CanLII 105 (SCC), [1993] 2 S.C.R. 689, at 724). That said, the applicant alleges that he had submitted abundant evidence indicating that Honduras could not protect him.
