A woman accused of spying for Russia says there's nothing to the allegations because her actions ended up helping -- not harming -- Canadian interests.

A land border crossing is pictured in this handout photo from the Canada Border Services Agency. OTTAWA -- A woman accused of spying for Russia says there's nothing to the allegations because her actions ended up helping Canadian interests.

An agent from the FSB, a Russian security agency, contacted Filatova to ask questions about the project and David gave her permission to tell the agent anything he wanted to know in the interest of transparency. Elena and the agent met about seven times over a period of years. Elena says she never possessed any secret information about the Tver project, nor did she covertly gather material for the Russian security agent.

In its ruling last June, the appeal division of the Immigration and Refugee Board found Elena had "engaged in acts of espionage contrary to Canada's interests" and issued a deportation order against her. The case has left the couple in disbelief, said Crenna, a former senior political aide and association executive who is now 75 and semi-retired.

The intelligence sought by the agent in the course of his work and relayed by Elena was "necessarily intended to be used in one way or another by the Russian state," the submission says.

As I said earlier: Just get the lady to do Black Face, she should be good to go into Canada.

Adjudicator Annie Lafleur said there must be legal benchmarks 'to preserve the integrity of the immigration system, guarantee Canada's security and on a larger scale, protect Canada's fundamental values.' LOL, great what's she doing against the current weaponized immigration?

Canada brings in actual terrorists but a woman that did nothing but talk to the FSB over housing is kicked out. What a useless government!
