The CCF applies Interpol’s Constitution, particularly Article 3, which prohibits the organization from undertaking any intervention or activities of a political, military, religious, or racial character. The Commission assesses whether the notice complies with Interpol’s Rules on the Processing of Data, evaluating factors such as the requesting country’s human rights record, evidence of persecution, procedural irregularities, and proportionality. The burden rests on the applicant to demonstrate non-compliance. Unlike Canadian courts, the CCF generally conducts a documentary review rather than oral hearings, making the quality of written submissions decisive to the outcome.
