Bishara, a citizen of Kenya, obtained a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) to visit Canada. Bishara lives in Nairobi, Kenya's capital. Her only immediate family is an older sister, also living in Nairobi that she sees on special occasions. Her parents have both passed on. She is divorced from her spouse. She has no children. As a trained architect and partner in a modestly successful firm, her life has become a daily rhythm of work-eat-sleep-repeat. Bishara is tired of her daily grind and thinks that more challenging work can be found in Canada. She therefore has applied for Permanent Resident status in Canada. She wants to check out what Canada has to offer and has decided to see what life in Toronto is all about, hence the TRV. She's not sure how long he will stay so she did not buy a return ticket so she could decide when to return to Kenya once she finished her information gathering/sightseeing mission in Toronto. Upon arrival at Toronto's Pearson International Airport, the CBSA officer asked many questions about her personal life and circumstances. She answered truthfully but was getting frustrated by the officer's persistent questioning. Bishara finally exclaimed, "I have my Visa, I am entitled to come to Canada to visit!"

(a) Is Bishara right? Must the CBSA officer allow her entry into Canada because she possesses a valid TRV? Briefly explain your answer. (1 mark)

(b) Referencing the relevant section of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, what is the likely concern of the CBSA officer. With reference to specific facts, analyse and explain the CBSA officer's concern
