Don’t Call Me Resilient is back! On our first episode of Season 5 - in our new, newsier format - we discuss the recent amendment to the Safe Third Country Agreement, the resulting closure of the unofficial border crossing between the U.S. and Canada at Roxham Road, and what this means for asylum seekers in Canada.

Host Vinita Srivastava speaks with guest Christina Clark-Kazak, Associate Professor, School of Public and International Affairs at the @uottawa about what these changes mean for people searching for a safe country who are now being turned away from Canada, and how these changes further indicate the inherent racism in Canada's immigration policies.

The issues at play are larger than any one single border crossing; they are intimately connected to global politics including economic inequities, resource extraction, imperialism, colonialism and exploitation.
