In Waiting for Godot, two men wait endlessly for Godot, who never arrives. Will Godot arrive and save Phil Mooney and Jeffrey Hemlin's anticipated power and control over the regulator in their own financial interests?
Does Minister Kenney care about ICCRC now that he is part of a majority government and can do whatever he wants; even re-establishing CSIC as a federal statutory body as recommended by the Standing Committee in 2008? Will Kenney put his future goal of becoming Prime Minister in jeopardy by endorsing crooked consultants, and the incompetent ICCRC who harbors them?
Will Citizenship & Immigration Canada (CIC) senior officials put their own professional reputation at risk by supporting Jeffrey Hemlin's misconduct towards a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), CIC (selling signed blank Use of Representative forms to a ghost consultant) and the regulator, CSIC (submitting a false declaration). Will CIC senior officials such as Les Linklater, Mark Davidson and Sandra Harder also risk the airing of public accusations that they have been involved in influence peddling by Phil Mooney to get himself appointed the head of the proposed new regulator?
What will be CSIC's legal response now that their application for a stay has been dismissed? Will CSIC file another stay application if the publication in the Canada Gazette proceeds? What will happen with CSIC's leave and judicial review application? What will be the response when people realize that all the disciplinary hearings on CSIC's website, and all the investigations are halted by the change in regulator? What if the media comes to know that every CSIC Member under investigation or at a hearing is given a clean slate by joining ICCRC?
What will happen when members of ICCRC realize not only are they competing with lawyers and each other for business, they are also competing with revoked CSIC members who have been let into ICCRC? What will be the response if ICCRC becomes regulator, and the members' fees are jacked up once the ICCRC realizes it is impossible to regulate 1900 transitioned CSIC members + 1000 revoked CSIC members + chase ghost consultants on a shoestring budget and only 18 staff? What will occur if the ICCRC then tries to revoke the incompetent and unethical members, who on judicial review will have the decision quashed due to a lack of procedural fairness in ICCRC disciplinary decision-making?
ICCRC, Mooney and Hemlin in particular are waiting for Godot. Godot may come; but the "paradise" of having control of the regulator will quickly come to be known as the hell found in Sartre's play No Exit. CSIC and CAPIC/ICCRC are locked in a room for eternity, declaring "Hell is other Regulators!". CSIC constantly lists CAPIC's evil attributes (Hemlin for example), while CAPIC deems CSIC evil ("high" membership fees being attributed to greed of course, not need of money to regulate, for example). The Minister has entered the room as they torture each other in a never ending stream of litigation, media campaigns, and disciplinary decisions. The Minister, if he was smart, would walk away and close the door rather than taking sides in the never-ending civil war between deregulation through ICCRC, and regulation through CSIC.
Jason Kenney...walk away while you still can, if you want to avoid a public inquiry. By proposing ICCRC, you have deregulated immigration consultants; you support crooked consultants who have ripped off immigrants and now can escape accountability and discipline by joining ICCRC; and you have endorsed the incompetent ICCRC! Whose downfall will be provoked once people become aware that the selection of ICCRC is support for crooked consultants and not the public interest; Phil Mooney, Jeffrey Hemlin, Les Linklater, Mark Davidson, or Jason Kenney?
