BRIDGES NOT BORDERS - CREONS DES PONTS

On this blog, we used to post information about our visits to the border at Roxham Road, USA side.
Since the closure of Roxham Road on Friday 24 March 2023, we're attempting to keep a log of the info we have about refugees who have been returned to the US.

Sur ce blogue, nous avons affiché des informations sur nos visites à la frontière, Roxham Road, États Unis. Depuis la fermeture de Roxham Road le vendredi 24 mars 2023, nous essayons de tenir un répertoire des informations que nous avons cueillies sur les réfugiés qui ont été renvoyés aux États-Unis.

Border visit 17 July 2022

We arrived shortly after 3:00 pm.  The first taxi arrived at 3:35 bringing a young couple from Zimbabwe. They had quite a lot of luggage but the taxi driver didn’t leave the car or open the trunk of the car for them.  The RCMP officer was polite and to the point, telling them that they would be arrested if they crossed. They proceeded calmly.

We waited for an hour before another taxi arrived with a young Haitian man. He was quite nervous and didn’t seem to understand that he could cross after the RCMP had finished explaining that he would be arrested. He looked back towards us and the taxi driver. We said it was okay to proceed if he understood what the officer had said. Then he crossed.

    The earlier border visit reports were written by the volunteers who were at the border on that day, the later updates about the situation in the US are an attempt to keep a log of what we find out through our own visits in the US, or through contacts in the US.
    ​Les rapports de nos visites à la frontière et de l'information qu'on a pu collecter sur la situation aux États-Unis sont rédigés par les bénévoles qui étaient à la frontière ou aux É-U. Nous sommes désolés de ne pas avoir les ressources pour traduire ces rapports en français.
