This story has been published today in the front page of the Globe and Mail and it is very disturbing. The National Post also published a story on the subject. It is alleged that an immigration consultant is apparently connected to the terrorist attacks in Mumbai in 2008. I am sure that we will hear more on this in due course, as the matter is headed to court. This will probably prompt inquiries as to whether or not the consultatns's business was used to facilitate the entry of potential terrorists to the US and/or Canada, and what level of security screening is applied before a person is granted Canadian immigration and eventually citizenship. This story is of particular interest to me, as an acquaintance's friend, a lawyer in Mumbai, was killed at the Taj Hotel during the attack, while he was attending a dinner function. I cringe at the idea that some people may be using the cover of Canadian citizenship to commit nefarious acts abroad.
