Will Tao, alongside CBA Chair Kamaljit Lehal, represented the Canadian Bar Association before the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration at Parliament on December 2, 2024. Highlighting critical issues facing international students, they presented five key recommendations to address systemic challenges and create fairer pathways to permanent residency.
Heron Law’s Will Tao shared insights with CityNews on the challenges American Taylor Swift fans with DUI convictions may face at the Canadian border. Tao explained that DUI offences, reclassified as “serious criminality” in 2019, are assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Those denied entry can apply for a Temporary Resident Permit (TRP) but must prepare thorough documentation. Tao emphasized the importance of preparation to navigate these processes effectively.
