Asylum-seekers left in limbo after Trump's crackdown

Asylum-seekers from around the world face new challenges at the U.S. border. President Donald Trump suspended the asylum system just after his inauguration as part of his wide-ranging crackdown on illegal immigration. Lawyers, activists and immigrants say the process is now unclear, with many people deported after fleeting conversations with immigration officials while others languish in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody. Attorneys who work frequently with asylum-seekers at the border say their phones have gone quiet since Trump took office. Legal battles are ongoing, with rights groups challenging the restrictions.

"For more than 20 years, Canada and the United States have had the “Safe Third Country Agreement” which operates on the principle that a person claiming refugee status must do so in the first safe country in which they arrive. It is time for Canada to withdraw from that agreement."

Now they can be turned away at these points if they ask for asylum within 14 days of arrival.

We should be making it easier for asylum seekers to attain safe harbour.

We should not be making it easier for their rights as human beings to be violated.
