                                                   ORDER AND REASONS THEREFOR

NADON J.

[1]                 The purpose of the stay sought by the applicant is to prevent the conditional deportation order made against him on August 3, 2000, which became enforceable on February 19, 2002, from becoming a deemed deportation order on March 25, 2002.

[2]                 Like Rothstein J. (as he then was) in Rajan v. MCI (1994), 86 F.T.R. 70, I am of the view that this Court is without jurisdiction to grant a stay to the applicant.

[3]                 Consequently, the applicant's motion is hereby dismissed.

                                                                                                                                                   Marc Nadon
