Original Toronto Star caption: I like Jamaica but I like Canada better and I'd rather be with my father, says Annette Senior. I hope I can get back in time for school. Annette spent her 15th birthday yesterday in a Jamaican children's home, surrounded by strangers and wondering if she'll ever see her father again. And top immigration officals in Ottawa are still trying to decide whether to bring Annette and her 12-year-old brother, Antony whom immigration officals deported to Jamaica last Saturday back to Canada. The children were taken to a police station and questioned. Then they took us to a hotel where they send people who have to leave the country, Antony said.
