What is the case law in favour of granting a refugee status application?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Chou v. Region District School Board, 2005 CanLII 11195 (ON SC):

The underlying fact situations in the above four cases appear fairly similar. The boy from Iran (Re Novin-Kashany) had perhaps as sympathetic a case as any, yet the application was refused. Status in Canada was not a factor in Re Kovach and Srut or MacEachern v. Barnes, yet one application was granted (for tennis lessons) and one was refused (for school and “some stability in his life”). It is difficult to find a consistent approach in the cases.
