     REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

     (Delivered from the Bench at Toronto, Ontario,

     Monday the 28th day of April, 1997)

DESJARDINS, J.A.:

     We are all of the view that, as the answer to the certified question would not affect the outcome of this appeal, the certified question should not be answered.

     In any event, in view of the decision of this Court in Yusuf v. Canada (Minister of Employment and Immigration) (1995), 179 N.R. 11 (F.C.A.), rendered after the certification of the question, we find that the certified question is already answered.

     This appeal will therefore be dismissed.
