In a press release today, the Ukrainian Canadian Civil Liberties Association (UCCLA) is calling on Public Safety Minister Peter Van Loan to immediately de-naturalize and deport anyone living in Canada who was once a member of the KGB or any Soviet secret police organization.
The UCCLA is responding in part to a November 12, 2008 story in the Vancouver Province in which former KGB officer Mikhail Lennikov and his family face deportation from Canada within four months unless Minister Van Loan intervenes.
Lennikov has lived in Canada since 1997 and applied for permanent residency in 1998. According to Lennikov, he was recruited out of university to work as a Japanese translator for the KGB. He now fears he could be jailed and tortured if forced to return to Russia.

Good job, UCCLA. The KGB is responsible for 20M deaths. Their members should be in jail, not allowed to immigrate and live comfortably in Canada.
