Former Haiti prime minister vows to fight Canada’s sanctions
Under sanctions legislation, people can ask the minister for a revision, and a month after receiving a refusal, they can ask Federal Court to review the case.
In 2021, Federal Court tossed out an application by Venezuelan politician Rangel Gomez, who had argued that Ottawa violated procedural fairness by not giving him enough of an explanation for his sanctioning.A judge deemed it sufficient that Global Affairs Canada gave Gomez a list of media reports accusing his government of allowing trafficking and smuggling at mine sites, and accusing him of accepting bribes.
“It’s really a question of how much discretion the minister has, how much deference the courts will pay to the minister’s decision.”
