Canada Issues Travel Warning for U.S.







Wednesday, October 30, 2002

TORONTO — The Canadian government has issued a travel advisory with a twist: It suggests citizens born in Iraq, Syria and other countries targeted by U.S. anti-terrorism policies consider avoiding travel to the United States.





The advisory issued Monday focuses on a U.S. regulation adopted a year after the Sept. 11 attacks that permits American authorities to closely monitor travelers born in certain countries suspected of terrorism links.

Canada considers the system discriminatory because it targets citizens based on where they were born, said Reynald Doiron, a foreign affairs department spokesman.

"It's against basic principles on both sides of the border," Doiron said Wednesday. "Canadian citizens should be exempted from that measure."

There was no immediate comment Wednesday from the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa, a spokeswoman said.

A man holding joint Canadian-Syrian citizenship was detained Sept. 26 while changing planes at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport and deported to Syria. Canada protested the deportation of Maher Arar, 32, saying he should have been sent to Canada due to his Canadian citizenship and residence.

Syria, Iran, Iraq, Libya and Sudan are the countries listed in the U.S. National Security Entry Exit Registration System introduced on the first anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. The system authorizes the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service to photograph, fingerprint and monitor the arrival and departure of visitors born in or citizens of those nations.

The Canadian travel advisory notes that people from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen "could also attract special attention from American immigration and security authorities."

"In these circumstances, the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade advises Canadians who were born in the above countries or who may be citizens of these countries to consider carefully whether they should attempt to enter the United States for any reason, including transit to or from third countries," the advisory said.

Arar, a telecommunications engineer, was returning home to Montreal from a trip to Tunisia when he was stopped by U.S. authorities in New York.

Foreign Affairs Minister Bill Graham protested the deportation to U.S. Ambassador Paul Cellucci. Graham said U.S. officials told him they believed they could send Arar to Syria because of his Syrian citizenship. Canada has generally acceded to U.S. demands for greater border security since the December 1999 arrest of Ahmed Ressam, who tried to cross into Washington state from British Columbia with explosives in the trunk of his car.

Ressam was convicted of plotting to bomb the Los Angeles International Airport during millennium celebrations and is scheduled to be sentenced this year.

None of the Sept. 11 hijackers had known links to Canada.

Canada has joined the United States in tightening border security while trying to ensure that commercial traffic continues flowing smoothly to feed the world's biggest trade partnership, worth more than $1 billion a day.

I think you're a bit confused. Things like this is why Canadians think Americans are so ignorant.

On that same page you just linked us to it said:

[quote:2ec03]None of the Sept. 11 hijackers had known links to Canada.[/quote:2ec03]

So how can this be true: "Some of the terrorists came through your damn country before they killed our people!" if none of the hijackers had anything to do with Canada?

Maybe you should try to read the entire article before you go yapping your mouth off.

On the topic of the article that you say you read, it says "Canadian government has issued a travel advisory "

Big deal. Its what you wanted. You don't want arabs or anyone like that in your country in the first place so maybe were doing you a favor.

Any way you can't deny that its not discriminatory. Because it is.

But I don't really see what the big deal is.

Anyway, a little off topic but this guy:

[img]http://www.foxnews.com/images/banners/sec_oreilly03.jpg[/img]

is so fucking biased its not even funny. Remember kids, don't believe everything you hear. make a decision for yourself once in a while. Its good for you.

So, you're blaming terrorism in the U.S. on CANADA??

I think my IQ dropped 20 points after reading that post, man. Have a clue, for chrissakes.


Zone

this is just a snub against America. Either put your feet in the circle or stay out. Its so easy to get into Canada that many illegals come through Canada to get here. I know the Canadian Govt doesnt want a war with Iraq and thats OK cause we dont need the help but wouldnt mind the support. Get some balls, EH!
mb

hake:

Canada has a right to do that, it might be way to PC, but if they want to issue a travel advisory thats just fine with me, hell maybe it'll make the lines for Canadian coming down a little shorter. We also though have the right to check anyone of any race that we want to, if they seem suspicious we'll check'em. Plus this is just your usual people whining about security to get attention, he'll I was searched every single time I got onto a plane on my trip to D.C.

::sigh::

You really know nothing about anything, do you?

What is the most populated country in the world for terrorists cells to live in? Is it Canada? Nope. Its the good 'ol US of A. You can't say we should fix stuff and that were letting all the bad guys in to your country when your country has more terrorist cells than any other in the world. Whose letting them in? Canada? Nope again. Its you guys who are letting them in, so don't shit on us about it. Get a brain, EH!

It's the US border policy that allows the "Tired, Hungry, Poor. that's BS! Don't ... Blame Canada for our own crappy policies!

Its the idiots in the INS that let this people in, the border patrol is underfunded and undermanned. Thats why these people get in. Anyone see those 200 people from Haiti that came here illegaly on a boat, grounded the boat and then ran onto a highway and tried to catch rides from motorists hake: , they should have never even gotten that close.

that boat from Haiti should have been blown out of the water. What riles me on this issue is the fact that Canada and the US are supposed to be allies to the end and this kind of stuff ,I feel ,is the begining of the end of that.

What do you want us to do? We are doing the best we can. We don't ahve unlimited resources or anything. These things take time and money.

I don't see how any of that has to do with your article however.

Ya but you Americans Let them into your country.

Does that mean we will get less canadians visiting down here???!!! w0000000000000000000000t evil:

You get less Canadians visiting cause our dollar is too low.

well ninty 9 you can come down here and stay with me angel:

Only if you pay. biggrin:

...........on second though biggrin:

Sgt>Stackem, I just read another article. Your article may be wrong.

The one I read said that the warning was issued to Iraqis, Saudis etc. born IN Canada or has dual citizenship, not people who are just regular arabs.

This makes much more sense, because our govt wouldn;t tell other counties people to stay, only our own.

And why should arab-canadians be inspected more thoroughly than a regular canadian at the border? Its the same thing with the detention camps and putting the japs there during WWII, of course not as drastic. Anyway, the warning is a good idea. I guess thats the way its going to be. All arabs will be descriminated against from now on. Even canadian ones.

I don't find any offense to Canada telling people not to enter the U.S. In fact, i wish all countries would do the same. We have enough people here already and need to deport some.
Thanks Canada, and keep up the good work.

I've read accusations in many places that it was Canada that let terrorists into the states. Uhmm....when going to the states from canada you drive right by the canadian station and you stop and register at the american one which is staffed by americans. When you're going to canada from the states you stop at the canadian station. So, if the terrorists did in fact travel from canada into the US...it wasn't the canadians that let them past the border.

hake: blame mexico

lol blame mexico

Fucking wetbacks hake:

we're supposed to put water stations in the desert so the poor people entering our country illegally can survive out there. why don't we just buy them a fucking 1st class seat on american airlines? mad:

Are you fucking serious?! omfg we are better off just driving them in ourselves! mad:

Yeah I heard that to.

gotta love ignorant americans

you should all turn into millas, trippas and stik0rs...then you will be loved by the whole world.

Hey, the terrorists went through Germany also, but they were all mostly from Saudi Arabia.

okay #1 the reason we wont help with iraq is not because we dont have balls EH. Its because we dont belive in your bullshit policies and hyprocracy. You wanna attack iraq for having weapons of mass destruction? fine then we should attack you for having the same style of weapons.

And second.

Canada is only responsible for those who come INTO canada. When you go through canada to the USA it's america's immagration dept you go through. When you come up into canada its the canadians you deal with. So in all reality, we just let them hang out in our country, your the fuck nuts who let them into your country. maybe you should bomb youself for allowing terrorists to come into your country.

That link is to Fox News aka PROPAGANDA NEWS! Seriously fucked up new channel

Fukn' americans! M16:

There, how do you like idiotic generalizations !? hake: eek:

this is all about profiling, it is OK to profile someone. If you get bit by a snake then you watch for snakes. I live 10 miles from the largest population of Arabs outside the middleeast (Dearborn MI) and have no prob with most of them they are good hard working people but if I go on a flight with one of my Arabic friends I expect them to be pulled aside. If I lived in the Washington DC area I would fit the profile for the sniper (I hunt own guns and am a middle aged white male with ties to the NRA (National Rifle Association), TNUSA (Ted Nugents United Spoertmen of America) and MCRGO (Michigan Colation of Responsible Gun Owners) fitting me in that profile is OK because history shows it should have been someone similiar to me. Guess what it was an extreemist Muslum ...go figure. This puts Canada in the same mold as France IMHO (Americian hating whimpy libirals) I stopped going to Canada when C-68 was made into law and the only thing this law hurts is the people that run the guide services and hunting lodges as well as all the support peoiple (groceries, bars ect) the "sheepele" of Canada have to stand up to stop this kind of thing from happening but they dont. Our Constitution starts "We the People" your should be 'WE the Sheeple" just follow your govt baaaaaaaa baaaaaaaaaa baaaaaaaaa
mb

I feel another flamewar coming along. Seriously Stackem, what are you trying to prove? What's done is done. Going on with this nonsense is not helping anybody out, so just be a good sumaritan and shut your ginnytrap... cappish?

I know this is going nowhere so I tried to delete topic but didnt see where to do it. If a mod wants to delete it go for it!

Sloi hates me?! cry:
