Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted June 19, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted June 19, 2018 Oops. In Canada they detain children who are citizens when their parent was detained. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/hundreds-of-canadian-children-held-in-immigration-detention-report-shows/article34117189/ JOE FRIESENDEMOGRAPHICS REPORTER PUBLISHED FEBRUARY 23, 2017UPDATED MAY 17, 2018 More than 200 Canadian children have been held in immigration detention in recent years, according to a new report from the University of Toronto's International Human Rights Program. Between 2011 and 2015, 241 Canadian children were held at the Toronto Immigration Holding Centre alone, according to the report. Normally Canadian citizens cannot be subject to detention under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. These children became de facto detainees because they were in the care of a parent who was detained and is a foreign national or permanent resident. The children cannot, however, have their own detention review hearings. As a result they become "legally invisible," according to the report. "It's a clear violation of international law for these kids not to have their best interests taken into account as a primary consideration," said Hanna Gros, the report's author and a senior fellow at the University of Toronto. "It's quite shocking that Canadian citizens are treated this way." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s you guys thanks to Trump. Own it Others are Canadian citizens who are forced to choose between separating from parents who have been detained by immigration authorities or living in detention with their parents as de facto detainees. Those who stay with their parents still face family separation, in that they are held with their mother and have limited visits during the day with their father.
