VANCOUVER — Lai Changxing's last-ditch bid to stay in Canada has failed.
A federal judge issued a decision late Thursday denying the Chinese fugitive's request to stay a deportation order against him. The decision paves the way for his removal within days.
"Mr. Lai is a common criminal fugitive from the Chinese justice system who has had full access to Canada's immigration processes over the last eleven years and has been found not to be at risk if removed to China," Judge Michel Shore wrote.
Bernee Bolton, a spokeswoman for the Canada Border Services Agency, said in an email that she could not say when Lai would be deported for security reasons. But the law requires that "removal orders must be enforced as soon as possible."
Such a long trial...what a waste to taxpayers $$$

is it really a waste of taxpayers $$?
assuming the real estate prices really did go up because of him, how much extra property tax revenue did the government extract?
