Canada (Federal), Canada

The following excerpt is from Wage v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration), 2009 FC 1109 (CanLII):

The Applicant invokes Salibian v. Canada (Minister of Employment and Immigration), 1990 CanLII 7978 (FCA), [1990] 3 F.C. 250 for the proposition that he need not prove that he himself would be persecuted in the future, and that he may prove that his fears of return to Ethiopia are not the result of acts committed directly against him, but acts committed, or liable to be committed, against the members of a group to which he belongs.
