For the hundreds of Kashechewan First Nation evacuees in Niagara Falls, the Canada-U.S. border crossing is just a short walk away. But the First Nation is directing its members to stay on the Canadian side, following concerning actions by ICE in the United States. Ontario Regional Chief Abram Benedict says he’s aware of at least one First Nations man who was detained by ICE and brought back to Canada, his status card seized. Indigenous people have the right to freely cross the U.S.-Canada border under what’s known as the Jay Treaty, signed in 1794. He advises against travelling under the Jay Treaty, noting that recently an Indigenous man in the U.S. was reportedly detained by ICE agents.
