Meet Michael Bossin, one of the co-counsel for the Applicants in the Canadian Council for Refugees v Canada decision, where the Federal Court of Appeal found the Safe Third Country Agreement unconstitutional. In this episode, we talk how the decision found the STCA violates the Charter rights (section 7) of refugee claimants, the legal analysis behind the reasoning, and the immense work behind the scenes undertaken to build the case.
