US Singer Chris Brown barred from entering Canada

US Singer Chris Brown has been forced to cancel shows in Montreal and Toronto after Canadian officials stopped him from entering the country. 

Chris Brown wrote in a tweet on Tuesday Feb 24,2015, the "good people of the Canadian government wouldn't allow me entry. I'll be back this summer and will hopefully see all my Canadian fans!''
Canada did not give a reason for denying entry to the singer

Live Nation - the promoter of Brown's "Between The Sheets" tour - confirmed that the shows were cancelled "due to immigration issues".


Note

Chris Brown was sentenced to five years of probation for assaulting singer Rihanna before the Grammy Awards in 2009.
Since then he has violated the terms of his probation on several occasions. In 2013, Brown was charged with a misdemeanour when he and his bodyguard got into a brawl outside a Washington DC hotel.

Chris Brown was also denied entry to the UK in 2010, forcing him to miss four shows as the British Govt said that the singer had been refused a visa because of his past criminal record.
