Dear Sir,
REF: Personal Submission Regarding Inadmissibility in Canada
My name is Lequaan Walker and I have been a permanent resident of Canada following my immigration from England when I was nine years old. However, following a recent drug conviction, where I was found guilty and sentenced to 12 months in prison, I was deemed inadmissible into Canada. This is a decision that I feel is not in my best interest and would wish to state my case to show that I deserve an opportunity to change and turn over a new leaf in my life as a Canadian citizen. Therefore, the following submission pertains my humble request for reconsideration regarding the decision to be deemed inadmissible into the country and be deported.
My addiction to drugs started a while back when I was introduced to cocaine by friends who used it as a recreational drug to pass the time. I had never tried drugs before hence, my initial decision was based on the need to experience such a drug coupled with the increased pressure by friends to try cocaine.

My introduction to using drugs was mainly linked to emotional stress that I experienced over a certain period of my life, where I felt that things were not working out to my expectations. The fact that I had people who could easily access crack and powdered cocaine made the situation worse since I had a continuous source. With time, I could no longer support the habit because I was addicted and did not have a stable income source. Therefore, I had to resort to a means of supporting my addiction after I was provided with the option to sell the drugs to any willing users, which in turn would provide the required cash to get my daily dosage. My motivation to turn to sell drugs was based on the need to satisfy my addiction to the drug and not benefitting financially. The reduced sentence I received after my conviction was based on this fact since all the parties involved, including my lawyer and the judge, believed my honest submission in court. My previous run-ins with the law have been minor offenses in which I have served the required consequences. Thus, my recent behavior is not a true reflection of who I am as a person and is the culmin...
