“Deny Entry to Mr. Cheney,” Says NDP Immigration Critic
by LAW

Don Davies Member of Parliament for Vancouver Kingsway and NDP Immigration and Citizenship critic has made a written request that Minister Jason Kenney,

“…deny entry to Mr. Cheney on grounds of inadmissibility under IRPA for having engaged in acts of torture. In the event that you do not do so, I would respectfully request that a report be prepared setting out the relevant facts, and that you refer same to the Immigration Division for an admissibility hearing with a view to issuing a removal order against Mr. Cheney, all pursuant to section 44 of the IRPA.”

MP Don Davies released copies of this September 23, 2011 letter at a press conference today in Vancouver BC at the W2 Media Centre.

Ellen Woodsworth COPE member of Vancouver city council provided the following statement.

"The City of Vancouver is made up of people who want peace and have been part of the largest peace marches in Canada's history. Vancouver is a member of Mayors for Peace and the International Peace Messenger Cities. So frankly, I am appalled that the Vancouver Club would host a know war monger. Vancouver citizens have fled wars all over the world. So why would the West Vancouver Conservative Party bring a someone like him to Vancouver? It's unconscionable."
