I find it very strange that Canadians are not being warned about the risk of imprisonment when visiting our greatest and best and safest neighbour.

We have evidence from a pretty good source that Canadians will be imprisoned for having the audacity to visit the states. There’s no reason to think it’s just a one-off since people from other countries are being imprisoned also.

How is it appropriate for our government to recommend “Taking similar precautions to those you would take in Canada.”, when our lawyers say it’s not safe to travel as we did in the past?

I sincerely hope you’ll join me in contacting the Ministry of Travel to have this changed to yellow for caution:

Exercise a high degree of caution

There are certain safety and security concerns or the situation could change quickly. Be very cautious at all times, monitor local media and follow the instructions of local authorities.

      Nah. Our website only added a blurb about the 30 day thing. There’s nothing about the extra precautions needed to avoid imprisonment for being a foreigner.

      We need to update it to yellow instead of green.
