:::

Solidarity Across Borders is a Montreal-based network engaged in the
struggle for justice and dignity of immigrants and refugees. We are
comprised of migrants, immigrants,refugees and allies, and come
together in support of our main demands: the regularization of all non
status people (Status for All!), an end to deportations and
detentions, and the abolition of
security certificates.

We have successfully fought deportations and detentions, but have also
seen our family members and friends permanently removed from our
lives. We organize for all those who have been removed, extradited,
detained, forced underground, forced into sanctuary or victimized by
security certificates and secret trials. Inspired by those who have
resisted deportations, we continue to mobilize for all who continue to
fight against detentions, deportations and security certificates.

For every arbitrary detention, for every summary deportation, for
every minute spent in jail without charge or trial, for every anxious
and dehumanizing day spent waiting for status - all the days, months,
years that the government has stolen from us - we will continue to
organize and struggle, for justice and dignity. Join us to take back
stolen time.

We refuse to be invisible; we refuse to live in fear. We demand STATUS
FOR ALL and we organize to win.
