Summary
Jasmine Mooney, a 35-year-old Canadian woman, has been detained in U.S. immigration facilities since March 3 after attempting to enter with an incomplete Trade NAFTA work visa application.
She was initially held at San Ysidro border crossing before being transferred in chains to detention centers in San Diego and Arizona.
Her mother, Alexis Eagles, reports inhumane conditions including overcrowded concrete cells with constant lighting and inadequate facilities.
Business partner BJ McCaslin called the situation a “nightmare” while Global Affairs Canada confirmed they’re aware but unable to intervene in U.S. immigration matters.
Fucking shameful. This is how we treat our allies? I am ashamed to be an American.
That and threatening to eliminate our country altogether. We’re not really feeling the “allies” thing these days. I fairly often visit the USA, but I’m rethinking that now, along with many other Canadians. And I’m taking my money out of the USA too, wherever possible.
The US has allies??
The US has countries that it used to know.
