Why the rules in Canada is so complicated?? No family expected to have their children disabled. Disabled doesn't mean not perfect!

Paul Chapman, his wife Barbara-Anne and their children Jack, 16, and Lucy, seven, were excited about setting up home on a two-acre plot in Nova Scotia.

But their dreams were shattered by an immigration official who announced they could not enter the country because Lucy has a disability.

renovatio, I like this story. Only healthy people are good people, but every criminal with a good bank account and a cleaned-up record is welcomed. No place for us, why?
