Abstract

On 25 January 2005, the Federal Court of Canada upheld an Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) decision refusing to grant refugee status to an HIV-positive man and his same-sex partner. Pablo Sergio Gonzalez and his partner, Nelson Horacio De-Robles, feared persecution by the government of Argentina because of Gonzalez's past political activity.
