## Resource

Over 250 civil rights groups are demanding an investigation into Canada Border Services Agency actions that led to removal orders for protesters at a Calgary demonstration — sparking outrage over whether peaceful dissent was being silenced under immigration law. The protest, held after thousands of international students were denied post-graduation work permits due to sudden policy changes, turned into a flashpoint when CBSA agents verified immigration statuses on-site. While authorities say they’re enforcing the law fairly, activists argue this crackdown violates Charter rights and forces students to choose between speaking out and staying in Canada. Some affected students, misled by colleges about permit eligibility, now face exclusion orders and are filing judicial reviews — all while civil society pushes for an immediate halt to deportations and an independent review of these controversial enforcement actions.
