Legal action urges requirement for lawyer presence in meetings between border officials and migrants

September 20, 2025

Currently, extensive portions of the immigration and refugee system do not afford people the right to be represented by a lawyer, says the proposed application for judicial review by the Canadian Immigration Lawyers Association, or CILA.
