The Test
In order for the Court to stay removal, an applicant must satisfy the tripartite test for interlocutory injunctions set out in RJR — MacDonald Inc v Canada, [1994] 1 SCR 311. In the immigration context, this is typically referred to as the Toth test, referring to Toth v Canada (Minister of Employment & Immigration) (1988), 6 Imm LR (2d) 123, 86 NR 302 (FCA).
The test has three parts and each must be met to succeed. The burden of proof is on the applicant to show:
- that there is a serious issue to be tried in the underlying application;
- that he/she would suffer irreparable harm if no order was granted and he/she was removed from Canada; and
- considering the situation of both parties, the balance of convenience favours granting the stay.
