Canada (Attorney General) v. Dias

The appeal is dismissed because, although the Director did inform the respondent of the alleged s.117 offence, the facts relied upon could not reasonably support a finding that the respondent himself committed the s.117 offence; Passport Canada cannot deny services based on mere suspicion or guilt by association and administrative action must be supported by facts proving the statutory elements.

  • Judicial review
  • Revocation and denial of passport services
  • Statutory interpretation
