Balancing the Rights of Migrants and International Criminal Law: The Case of Alleged Rwandan War Criminals Under Canada’s Immigration Laws
Bibliographic record
Abstract
For Canadian laws to hold immigrants accountable for international crimes is a laudable policy. However, even though these laws provide for prosecution or extradition of suspected criminal, the Canadian approach emphasizes immigration remedies. In this regard, the Rwandan genocide has provided the Canadian authorities with a delicate task and unique challenges. This article explores the merits of the Canadian approach and its consequences through a discussion of three main issues: its reliance on immigration over extradition proceedings, thereby circumventing important safeguards; its lack of consistency in the application of international criminal law provisions between criminal and immigration matters; and its reliance on the impermissible concept of “guilt by association” in determining complicity for international crimes.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
