    Trying to Catch the Chinook with Zeynab Ziaie

    This Immlight episode features Zeynab Ziaie, a Toronto-based immigration lawyer who is deep in the trenches of temporary resident applications. She focuses on study permit refusals. In this episode, Will, Lou, and Zeynab talk about Chinook, a system that is slowly being unveiled to the public through various affidavits that Canada's Department of Justice has been introducing to various judicial review applications that deal with temporary resident applications. For the longest time, we have had our thoughts and ideas on how Canada's immigration department had dealt with temporary resident applications. Now as the picture becomes clearer, Zeynab and the hosts try to unpack the implications of such a system, rudimentary as it is. Does it respect the fundamental principles of administrative law in Canada? Does it promote transparency and the intelligibility of decision-making? Find out more in this episode.
