When someone is removed, the government first tries to send them to the country they came from, where they last lived permanently, a country they're a citizen of, or their birth country. If none of those countries will accept them, the Minister chooses an alternative country that will.
(1)If a removal order is enforced under section 239, the foreign national shall be removed to (a)the country from which they came to Canada; (b)the country in which they last permanently resided before coming to Canada; (c)a country of which they are a national or citizen; or (d)the country of their birth.
(3)Despite section 238 and subsection (1), the Minister shall remove a person who is subject to a removal order on the grounds of inadmissibility referred to in paragraph 35(1)(a) of the Act to a country that the Minister determines will authorize the person to enter.
