[2] The respondent submits that this motion is premature as no removal of the applicants has currently been scheduled; rather they have been given an opportunity to voluntarily leave Canada by June 28, 2010, if they choose.

[4] I agree with the respondent that at this time there is nothing for this Court to stay. There is no decision or order that the applicants be removed from Canada and thus there is no serious issue, even on the low test of it being an issue that is not frivolous or vexatious. [5] The applicants are very likely to be ordered removed if they do not do so voluntarily and thus they will have further opportunities, no doubt, to seek a stay from this Court based on a real decision or order. Accordingly, I will refrain from commenting on the merits of the motion, other than to say that it is premature. ORDER THIS COURT ORDERS that this motion for a stay is dismissed. "Russel W.
