TORONTO — Another U.S. war resister has been ordered to leave Canada with his family after living in Toronto for the past four years.

Sgt. Patrick Brendan Hart, 34, was informed that he and his family do not qualify under the Pre-Removal Risk Assessment program.

The program requires that people will not be deported if it would put them in danger or where they would face the risk of persecution.

Their request to stay in Canada on humanitarian and compassionate grounds was also turned down.

Hart left the U.S. military before his second deployment in Iraq because he said he believes the military occupation in that country is “illegal and unnecessary.”
