REASONS FOR ORDER AND ORDER
BLAIS J.
[1] This is a motion for a stay of the removal of Julia Csanyi and her daughter Dorottya Toth on May 30th, 2000.
[2] The Applicant suggests that the Respondent has fettered his discretion in writing on May 8th, 2000:
| "As indicated in my previous reply to your office, dated March 22, 2000, allow approximately 8 months for file to be received. Please be advised that it is our Ontario regional policy not to expedite 114(2) application due to impending removal. Note that all applications will be reviewed and a decision will be rendered whether the subject is in Canada or has left." |
[3] I am not convinced that the officer had a duty to expedite the matter or that he fettered his discretion. Section 114(2) is a discretionary provision and a decision will be made according to the law. Furthermore, it is not possible considering the workload to expedite the decision each time there is a deportation order.
[4] In my view, there is no serious issue. Furthermore, I am not convinced that they would suffer irreparable harm should they return to Hungary. The loss of a school year although harmful is not by itself irreparable. There is no evidence adduced that the applicant"s life will be endangered in Hungary. She claimed that she suffered abuse while married. There is no evidence that the abuse continued when she divorced her husbands. As to the husband, the test provides that the irreparable harm be done to the applicant and not to a third party.
[5] This stay should be dismissed.
