Basically all written in the title. Does anyone know if Canada is actually accepting us as refugees from the US yet, or no? Any information is appreciated, thank you!
No. Canada has an agreement with the US that nobody entering Canada from the US will be seen as a refugee and will be deported back to the US. Vice versa is true with people entering the US from Canada.
It’s the Safe Third Country Agreement. They even have big red letters saying “yes this agreement is still in effect”.
Bottom of the On This Page section:
The Agreement does not apply to US citizens
This.
For some bizarre reason, Americans are defined via international treaty as “not refugees”. Nothing the US government does to its citizens is allowed to be considered inhumane, oppressive, or persecution.
