Abstract
It is generally considered that there is a dearth of rights in the field of law and terrorism. In fact, when it comes to the Immigration Act and the process of deporting those alleged to be members of an inadmissible class due to their affiliation with terrorist organizations, there is an embarassment of riches when it comes to procedural rights. Some of Canada's most prominent terrorism cases read like intricate fantasy tales rather than like the deductive reasoning to a straightforward conclusion that one expects of legal writing.
