her ex-roommate at Colorado State University threatened her with a gun
the case against the roommate was dismissed a few months later and a judge declined to keep the protection order in place
claimed the ex-roommate continued to stalk her, and said police did not respond to her calls for action
Considering the case is now quite publicized, I would be worried for this person’s safety if sent back to the US and the current political climate regarding transgenders.
Lmfao this is a joke right? It’s this person’s responsibility to find new accomodations, and move if they need to. You can’t just fucking claim asylum because you have a stalker. Absolutely ridiculous argument.
Stop being disingenuous. There are plenty of states in the US that are very LBGT friendly. This person was in Colorado, which has extremely lax gun laws, so of fucking course they’re at risk of gun violence. And it’s not state-sponsored violence, it was a personal conflict. They have many, many options to ensure their safety in the US, including changing their name and moving. Both of which are easier than moving to Canada.
Doesn’t matter. The Supreme Court of Canada held in Ward that persecutors need not be affiliated with the state. Hell, even state complicity isn’t necessary.

That statement alone just shows how the court fucked up.
I never went to CSU. My roommate wasn’t at CSU. CSU Police Department was simply the PD physically closest to the house. That’s why CSU PD called the Fort Collins Police Service to investigate. The Tribunal’s Record clearly shows that none of my immigration forms say I went to CSU, nothing in my claim would indicate I was affiliated in any way with CSU, the only thing CSU-related in my file is the witness statement form Fort Collins Police Service had me fill out. And only because they didn’t want to go out to their car to get one of their forms. All the other PD forms in the Tribunal’s Record, including the trial records, clearly indicate that FCPS was the arresting agency.
Granted, there are many, many more examples of how the court fucked up in making that decision. For example, the claim that the RAD insisted on a standard of perfect protection - an argument that the RAD decision itself rebutted by stating that they were only evaluating it from the standard of operational adequacy. Operationally adequate protection needs to yield actual results, as required by Moran Gudiel.
Just a minor note, you shouldn’t call trans people “transgenders”, gramatically it’s the same as calling black people “blacks” and can come off as rude.

Are you living under a rock or something?
You think this person will be safe in the US after all this media circus?

Kinda hard to do when he starts attending your new residences with a gun. He tracked me down to two other residences before I fled the country.
