Canada (Federal), Canada

The following excerpt is from Dejo Dillon v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration), 2005 FC 381 (CanLII):

Despite a well-supported argument on the part of the applicant's counsel, I am not satisfied that the refugee claimant rebutted the presumption that the panel took into consideration all the evidence submitted to it before rendering its decision (Florea v. Canada (Minister of Employment and Immigration), [1993] F.C.J. No. 598 (F.C.A.) (QL)).
