A GUIDE FOR LGBTQI+ Asylum Seekers Crossing the Canada-U.S. Border 🔗 [Link: haven.utsc.utoronto.ca/index.php/a-​guide-​for-​lgbtqi-​asylum-​seekers-​crossing-​the-​canada-​u-​s-​border/]

This guide was produced by The Asylum Lab at University of Toronto.  It discusses eligibility for making asylum claims in Canada.  One thing I learned is that the Safe Third Country Agreement does not apply to US citizens, which removes one of the major roadblocks to refugee claims.
