The retention and sharing of exit and entry data by IRCC and CBSA officers is anticipated to cause increased allegations of misrepresentation and to fuel grounds for search and seizure at Canadian ports of entry. With the addition of a global pandemic, situations at the border can get complicated – quickly. Our partner, Ted Marrocco, will be joining an all-star panel of leading Canadian immigration counsel and CBSA officers today to discuss what to do when customs and immigration authorities detain individual clients at the border or surprise corporate clients with a search warrant at their offices. Ted will be speaking about critical topics such as cell phone searches, the right to counsel, and effectively maintaining claims of privilege. Panel details can be found here.
