AFN is now recommending that First Nations members may want to carry a Canadian passport or other valid identification. “In extreme circumstances, Canadian citizens may contact the Canadian Consulate for assistance while in the United States,” they said. “Since time immemorial, our people have crossed the river into what is now called the United States of America.,” officials said.
