Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade - Travel Reports

"The United States National Security Entry Exit Registration System (NSEERS), introduced on September 11, 2002, authorizes the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service to keep track of the arrival and departure of non-immigrants to the United States who were born in Iran, Iraq, Libya, Sudan, or Syria or who may be citizens of those countries. NSEERS requires that these individuals be photographed and fingerprinted and have their entry into and exit out of the United States verified. In addition, individuals who were born in or who have the citizenship of Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, or Yemen could also attract special attention from American immigration and security authorities.

In these circumstances, the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade advises Canadians who were born in the above countries or who may be citizens of these countries to consider carefully whether they should attempt to enter the United States for any reason, including transit to or from third countries. In addition, all Canadians should be aware that NSEERS activity by the Immigration and Naturalization Service may lead to delays at U.S. immigration checkpoints."

Canada is warning its middle-eastern citizens to reconsider travel to the US.
