It is on these terms that we understand that the Immigration and Refugee Board makes that decision and it considers each asylum case on a case-by-case basis.</p>",

D'apr\u00e8s nous, c'est en se basant sur ce principe que la Commission de l'immigration et du statut de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9 du Canada prend ses d\u00e9cisions; elle traite individuellement chaque cas de demande d'asile.</p>"
