Four Guyanese, who have criminal convictions in Canada, were yesterday listed among persons wanted by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
Shameer Allie, Vibert Henry, Delon Jemmott and Krishnadat Ramnarine are in the Canadian federal government’s expanded “Wanted by the CBSA” list of individuals who have failed to comply with the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and have criminal convictions in Canada.
The announcement was made in Toronto by Vic Toews, Minister of Public Safety, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Public Safety, Candice Hoeppner, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of National Defence, Chris Alexander and Luc Portelance, President of the CBSA.
