@QasimRashid@mastodon.social someone passed this to me. Are you suggesting the US does not adhere to the Safe Third Country Agreement today?

@opendna@mastodon.sdf.org @QasimRashid@mastodon.social there would be more if groups supporting LGBT refugees thought people could get through and stay in Canada.

@opendna@mastodon.sdf.org very well said, thank you.

@mathew@universeodon.com that's great to see the Biden admin is doing something there. Those countries are certainly not universally safe third countries. There is another such agreement between Canada and the US. It stops #LGBTQ+ persons in the US facing systemic persrcution from accessing safety in Canada. Thus is why my organization urges LGBTQ+ asylum seekers to avoid the US at all costs in their journey. That needs to fall too. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/mandate/policies-operational-instructions-agreements/agreements/safe-third-country-agreement.html
