Inadmissibility and Legal Issues

One of the major immigration problems in Canada is inadmissibility. Inadmissibility to Canada is an immigration issue that essentially means that a person is barred from entering the country. There are a few different causes for inadmissibility, most having to do with medical issues or criminal inadmissibility.

Criminal Inadmissibility

If a person has been convicted of or committed a crime in Canada or their home country, and that crime is equivalent to a crime in Canada according to Canadian criminal law, the person may be considered inadmissible to Canada due to criminality. It is important to note that not all crimes and convictions make a person inadmissible to Canada.

Medical Issues

A person can also be considered inadmissible to Canada due to their health situation. If a person has a medical condition that poses a serious threat to the health or safety of the Canadian public, they will likely not be allowed to enter the country. Likewise, a person might be denied entry if an immigration officer determines that there is a chance that they will pose an excessive demand from publicly funded Canadian health and social services.
