pocotraitor may be referring to American actor Randy Quaid.



Randy Quaid lived in Canada with his wife, Evi, after they fled the United States in 2010, initially seeking refugee status on the grounds of fearing for their lives from a Hollywood conspiracy.

While Evi Quaid was granted Canadian citizenship, Randy Quaid's application for permanent residency was denied in 2013 due to alleged criminal acts in the U.S., specifically a charge of defrauding an innkeeper, which would be a crime in Canada.

He remained in Canada under conditions, and as of 2015, was still under a removal order.

Key Events

2010: Escape to Canada The couple fled to Canada, claiming they were targeted by a group of "Hollywood star whackers" who were killing famous actors.

2013: Residency Denied Randy Quaid's bid for permanent residency was denied because he faced charges in the U.S. that would also be crimes in Canada, such as the alleged defrauding of an innkeeper.

2013-2015: Living in Montreal Quaid was living in Montreal after failing to appear for an Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) interview in

2013. He was later freed from detention in April 2015 on a bond but remained under a removal order.

2015: Attempted to Re-enter U.S. In October 2015, Randy and Evi Quaid were detained at a Canadian border crossing while attempting to re-enter the United States. He was facing a pending deportation order from Canada and outstanding arrest warrants from California.

Current Status (as of the last reports) Randy Quaid is still technically under a removal order from Canada and could be ordered to leave the country at any time. His inadmissibility is linked to past alleged offenses in the U.S. that are considered crimes in Canada.
