		In 1991, the Immigration Department's refugee board found this man guilty of complicity in crimes against humanity, which of course allowed him to begin a whole new round of hearings and other tactics to delay his deportation.
		Canada has become the favoured destination for many thousands of people around the world who are aware that, no matter how unjustified their refugee claim and no matter how ill-qualified they may be to adjust to life here, once they present themselves at a port of entry, they are virtually assured of staying here indefinitely.
		According to Bauer, the problems are exacerbated by the fact that many members of the immigration and refugee board are political appointees who are unsophisticated, unknowledgeable, and "not necessarily competent".

		In all honesty, although this Board should not be made up entirely of lawyers, I feel that it is far easier for a law graduate who has acquired some legal knowledge to deal with the lawyers who, in virtually 100 per cent of all cases, represent the refugees.
