Minister of Immigration Repeatedly Ignores Request to Deport
Anti- gay Artist
Toronto: Notorious anti-gay “murder music” artist Buju Banton is back on Canadian soil despite numerous requests by LGBT human rights organizations to The Minister of Citizenship and Immigration to deny his entry.
Minister Diane Finely is more concerned about getting re- elected than she is about addressing the legitimate concerns of LGBT communities. Egale Canada and Stop Murder Music (Canada) believe Minister Finley should deport Buju Banton immediately.
“The Minister has abdicated her duties by allowing Buju Banton into the country and as a result has provided him with a platform to incite ‘murder’ said Akim Larcher, spokesperson for Stop Murder Music (Canada). “Buju Banton has continued to perform ‘murder music’ whilst on tour in the Caribbean and has recently said that gays and lesbians are part of social decay.”
To date, our Federal Government has ignored requests to revoke Buju Banton’s visa and has been silent on the issue of “murder music” for over a year now.
