Mohamad Kassar, a Lebanese-born permanent resident convicted in 2018 of fentanyl trafficking and sentenced to 45 months, faced removal ordered in 2019 but won a temporary stay from Federal Court Justice Angus Grant on February 11. The judge cited clear evidence of harm from Kassar's lung lesion, COPD, depression, and pain without Canadian care, amid Lebanon's economic crisis crippling its healthcare. The decision draws sharp criticism online, contrasting with overwhelmed Canadian ERs where 1.27 million left without treatment last year and cases like Stacey Ross, who died after an 11-hour wait for chest pain at Winnipeg's St. Boniface Hospital. Critics question prioritizing a criminal's care over citizens facing deadly delays.
