Re: Immigrants and Trump policies -

300 haitians arrive in Montreal, each day ...... Fearing Trump policies - They go the Ú S -Cân a da bỏ r der, by taxi, then get arrested, and brought to the Olympic Stadium -

Now, the Trump administration is monitoring earthquake recovery efforts, to determine whether temporary protected status for Haitians, should be terminated in January 2018, when its recent six-month extension, ends.

The Homeland Security secretary, John F. Kelly, said in a news release in May, that Haiti has been making significant progress, advising T.P.S. holders, to begin to “prepare for and arrange their departure” should the special designation end, in January.

That advice has left Haitian T.P.S. holders — as many as 58,000 in the United States, with 20,000 in New York — mired in fear. Some who have established lives here, said they feared losing their dreams. Others who have lived in the United States for many years, may find it difficult to adjust to life in Haiti, the Western Hemisphere’s poorest country. And those with American-born children, could be parted from them.

Under the Obama administration, Haiti’s T.P.S. permits were reviewed every 18 months, with the current extension ending today. In May, the Trump administration said the next extension would be for six months, ending on Jan. 22, 2018. -

Mr. Depas said some T.P.S. recipients have decided not to renew their status, for fear of giving immigration authorities, information that could locate them, should the program end. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/21/nyregion/haiti-immigrants-trump.html **

Jean-Pierre Fortin, president of the union representing Canada Border Services Agency border guards, said 500 people crossed illegally on Tuesday alone. “The numbers have exploded in the last week and a half,” said Fortin. “My colleagues at the border said it was a similar day today (Wednesday).” http://www.680news.com/2017/08/02/with-spike-in-asylum-seekers-montreals-olympic-stadium-to-be-used-as-shelter/ **

Border security agents estimate that some 200 migrants are processed at the Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle border crossing, every day, after being intercepted walking across the border, somewhere other than an official border crossing. From January to June of this year, the top five countries of origin of refugee claimants, were Haiti, Sudan, Turkey, Eritrea, and the United States. The CBSA has since set up a command post near the Lacolle border crossing, to screen and control the influx of refugees. http://montreal.ctvnews.ca/refugees-from-u-s-being-housed-in-olympic-stadium-1.3529687 **

And it might just get worse with the recent news coming from the White House. Trump announced on August 2 that he's looking to make adjustments to immigration and refugee policies, prioritizing those who “speak English” and don't need financial assistance. http://elitedaily.com/news/politics/many-people-fleeing-u-s-canada-opened-olympic-stadium-house/2035526/ **
