Editor: Regarding the case of Jos茅 Figueroa and the treatment of him and his family, I feel outraged.
When a federal court declared he was not a terrorist, and demanded Citizen and Immigration Canada to restart his permanent resident application and Canada Border Services Agency was told to cancel the deportation order against him鈥攏othing was done.
When the warrant for his deportation caused him to hole up in a church (as a prisoner), separated from his family鈥攖his caused great anxiety and grief for all.
What has happened to our country鈥攖he land of liberty鈥攖hat even when a ruling comes from the federal court, nothing is done? Why? And who is responsible for making this family suffer so?
I have been proud of my homeland鈥斺渢he true north, strong and free鈥 and I say: Let justice be done鈥攕et the man free.
Let him have the opportunity to work and support his family. Let him experience the true democracy, justice and freedom of Canada.
