[Sanctuarycity_hamilton] article regarding Sanctuary City in Vancouver

[Caitlin Craven]

Hey folks,

Thought people might find this interesting if they haven't come across it
yet.  Harsha Walia has written a lot about no borders and migration
including the book "undoing border imperialism".  I think the piece speaks
well to some of the ways that sanctuary city as a policy to make cities
more 'welcoming' can get taken up by politicians and others that obscure
anti-poor or colonial practices.  Anyway, thought folks might want to take
a look.
