Who would be inadmissible applicant?
People who pose a threat to public health, safety, order or national security. Also inadmissible are those who fail to meet other requirements, such as not having required visas, authorizations, visible means of support and valid travel documents. Exclusions on health grounds are based solely on danger to public health or safety, or excessive demands on health or social services in Canada. Inadmissibility on criminal grounds is determined according to the sentence that could be given for the equivalent offences under Canadian law; the possibility of admission following rehabilitation is also considered. The Immigration Act also protects the Canadian public by providing for the removal from Canada of persons identified as inadmissible, such as participants in organized crime, and would-be terrorists, hijackers and war criminals.
