[1]                 This case on all fours with the case of Isufi v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration) 2003 FC 880 decided by Justice Tremblay-Lamer which I find persuasive particularly because of her reliance on the Federal Court of Appeal's decision in Aquino v. Canada (Minister of Employment and Immigration) 1992 F.C.J. No. 509.

                                                                            ORDER

THIS COURT ORDERS that this judicial review application is dismissed. Counsel for the parties may formulate a certified question January by 30^th, 2004 with responding comments by February 4^th, 2004.
