I'm hoping all the people on here insisting we had nothing to worry about since Trump was only going to go after "illegals" are finally starting to see the truth. This is scary. This is not

It's horrible. How will they (or anyone who's barred from the US) support themselves...The U.S is their home and they have every right to come back. This is disgusting.

Are they still detained? If so perhaps get legal assistance involved. Technically, the only people permitted access to the US are USC's, even LPR's technically can be turned away,.

Having the executive orders in place already is also a road block somewhat; but not as much since they have a GC.

Oh god... It begins... Can they go back to Canada for the time being? I imagine the place they're being detained isn't exactly nice. The executive order is currently valid for 90 days, they can remain in Canada until then but how they would finance that I have no idea... This is outrageous though, these people have lives in the US...

From what we can see, is that it bans ALL aliens. They're just legal aliens.

GC holders are still considered aliens under this, so as long as they have a passport from one of those countries, they can still be banned out.

As for what you can do, try to get them a lawyer, have them go back into Canada if they can, but the way the wording of the executive order is, they won't be allowed in even with a GC.

@Delirium (hehehe that's a belgian beer :D)

 

Man, I've been in the US since 2011. Today marks the 2000th day of me living in the US. I'm not an LPR yet and even I feel like my entire life is in the US. I can't imagine what I would do if one day I couldn't come back home. LPR's should be given the right to enter just like USC's. If your whole life is here, what the heck are you supposed to do when they deny you? You might not even have anywhere to go!

That's crazy. I thought the ban was only for people on visas, didn't realize it also extend to green card holders. Are we sure about that or is this just some CBP interpreting one of the new rules wrong?
