Section 277 — Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations: Relief from obligations

Despite sections 273 and 276, a commercial transporter is relieved of its obligation to carry a foreign national from Canada, except for a member of its crew or a foreign national who entered Canada to become a member of its crew, if the foreign national at the time of their examination was authorized to enter and remain in Canada on a temporary basis; held a temporary or permanent resident visa; or was a person prescribed under section 258.1 and the commercial transporter was not, before the person was carried to Canada, notified under section 270 that the person may have been a prescribed person.
