Section 230 — Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations: Considerations

The Minister may impose a stay on removal orders with respect to a country or a place if the circumstances in that country or place pose a generalized risk to the entire civilian population as a result of an armed conflict within the country or place; an environmental disaster resulting in a substantial temporary disruption of living conditions; or any situation that is temporary and generalized. The Minister may cancel the stay if the circumstances referred to in subsection (1) no longer pose a generalized risk to the entire civilian population. The stay does not apply to a person who is inadmissible under subsection 34(1) of the Act on security grounds; is inadmissible under subsection 35(1) of the Act on grounds of violating human or international rights; is inadmissible under subsection 35.1(1) of the Act on grounds of sanctions; is inadmissible under subsection 36(1) of the Act on grounds of serious criminality, under subsection 36(2) of the Act on grounds of criminality or under subsection 36(2.1) of the Act on grounds of transborder criminality; is inadmissible under subsection 37(1) of the Act on grounds of organized criminality; is a person referred to in section F of Article 1 of the Refugee Convention; or informs the Minister in writing that they consent to their removal to a country or place to which a stay of removal applies.
