Man Threatens Legal Action Against Immigration Minister Over Lost Sponsorship Application

A Quebec man is threatening to sue Immigration Minister Marc Miller after Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) lost his Cuban wife’s sponsorship application, which included sensitive documents.

Despite IRCC admitting to a privacy breach, the file remains missing, and the couple continues to live apart.

The mans’s lawyer has demanded urgent action from the minister, including a thorough investigation and compensation for identity monitoring. The couple's case highlights ongoing concerns about IRCC’s handling of personal information.
