Military Deserter Denied Refugee Status

Posted on Sunday, November 05 at 12:26 by jensonj
Joshua Key, 27, a father of four, is the third high-profile deserter to be refused asylum by the Immigration and Refugee Board. "I am sure he will be terribly disappointed," Jeffrey House, Key's lawyer, said yesterday. "I thought we had an invincible case." Key was shipped to Iraq in April 2003 and left 240 days later, disillusioned by the war and shaken by the actions of fellow soldiers. http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/World/Iraq/2006/11/04/pf-2231322.html

    Giving refugee status to Joshua Key would ruin Harpers status with the USA. He (Harper) has already proven usefull to them. Key is flushable material to Harper. Another deserter had left BC because he was convinced by the US military to return to his homeland to get a discharge. Upon arriving he realised it was just a hoax by the American military. He is now a fugitive in his own country. Once in the American military, you have lost your soul. Canada nor the USA will let you have it back. Canada is also allowing you to sell your soul and one may wonder where Canadian deserters will get their refugee status.
