No refugee status for U.S.deserters according to Canada,s highest Court. Why an American would assume he was a refugee after signing a contract by choice to serve and then act suprised to be posted overseas is bizzare to say the least. As much as I hate our current system of refugee claiment and the ridiculous abuses we let these people get away with, lets be serious here shall we. These are not child soldiers,or people forced to join a Military organization,they voluntarily joined,thus forfeiting any claim of illegality. Any thoughts folks?
