Tell Border Security:
"I Do Not Consent"

We are launching a hard-hitting strategy to get the unethical "Border
Security" production off the air and to protect the privacy of millions of
travelers and migrants crossing the border.

SIGN A FORM SO THE SHOW'S PRODUCERS, BROADCASTERS AND CBSA KNOW YOU DO NOT
CONSENT TO BEING FILMED FOR THIS TV SHOW WHEN YOU CROSS THE BORDER!

* WHY SHOULD I SIGN THIS "I DO NOT CONSENT" FORM?

Most "Border Security" episodes take place at border crossings and
airports. In many cases, people crossing the border appear as main
subjects or in the background of this show while under the control of law
enforcement and/or without giving full, free and informed consent. We want
thousands of people to tell the show's producers, broadcasters and CBSA
that we care about our privacy and do not ever want to appear on this show
in any form whatsoever.

* IS THIS "I DO NOT CONSENT" FORM EFFECTIVE?

The show relies on being able to capture people's images - whether as main
subjects or as background images, sometimes blurred and sometimes not -
for the show. The more people that sign this form the harder it will be
for this disgusting reality TV show to film freely at the border and the
harder it will be to exploit people in vulnerable situations.

IMAGINE THIS: If we all legally refuse to be on their show, who can they
film? Our refusal to consent has tangible consequences that directly
challenges the ability of this show to continue with
filming/business-as-usual.

* IS THIS "I DO NOT CONSENT" FORM CONFIDENTIAL?

Your information will be kept confidential by the BC Civil Liberties
Association, who are hosting this campaign. They will be sharing your
information only to the extent necessary to notify CBSA and the show's
producers and broadcasters about your refusal to consent to being filmed.
You can also opt-in to receive updates from Cancel Border Security
Coalition.

* WHO SHOULD SIGN THIS "I DO NOT CONSENT" FORM?

- Anyone who has ever crossed the border.
- Anyone who plans on crossing the border.

So you. And anyone and everyone else, so tell your friends, family,
coworkers, community members.


YOU SHOULD SIGN THIS "I DO NOT CONSENT" FORM AND THEN PLEASE SHARE IT WITH
OTHERS! WE NEED THOUSANDS OF US REFUSING TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS SHOW.

As a result of our collective mobilizing, the March 13 raid will not be
broadcast. CBSA has also announced two policy changes, one with respect to
filming of the Inland Enforcement Team, and second with respect to consent
at the border. While these are important victories, we want to send a
strong message that we completely refuse to participate in "Border
Security," an unethical and highly-one sided narrative that turns the
personal humiliations of people into a commercial production.

Cancel Border Security, Deportation is not Entertainment
