Organized Criminality

We’re doing the right thing.

If reasonable grounds exist, which link an individual or group to organized crime, the relevant individual or group may be rendered inadmissible to Canada. The Immigration and Refugee Protection Act explicates the relevant parameters associated with Organized Criminality in the immigration context.

Credible evidence connecting an individual or group to a pattern of organized criminal activity pursuant to the commission of a criminal offence punishable by an act of parliament is the crux of Organized Criminality under s. 37 (1) (a) of the IRPA.

The act of entering Canada with the assistance of organized criminal elements is not typically sufficient to render an individual inadmissible to Canada on the basis of organized criminality. This is a relevant exemption with respect to the application of inadmissibility in the context of organized criminality under s. 37 (2) of the IRPA.
