Living on Long Island NY and spent the day in Manhattan only to end up with with an appointment for a later date.
Before Department of homeland security Native Americans from Canada were covered under the Treaty of Amity:
It seems to me that the DHS does not supersede the court rulings or acts of congress:Since 1794, Aboriginal Peoples have been guaranteed the right to trade and travel between the United States and Canada, which was then a territory of Great Britain. This right is recognized in Article III of the Jay Treaty, also known as the Treaty of Amity, Commerce and Navigation of 1794 and subsequent laws that stem from the Jay Treaty.
Akins v. Saxbe
380 F.Supp. 1210
United States District Court, District of Maine
June 20, 1974.
and this:
from the Public Laws of the Eighty-Second Congress, Second Session, 1952:
Does any one know if this still stands with DHS?TITLE II—IMMIGRATION
CHAPTER 9—MISCELLANEOUS
AMERICAN INDIANS BORN IN CANADA
SEC. 289.
Nothing in this title shall be construed to affect the right of American Indians born in Canada to pass the borders of the United States; but such right shall extend only to persons who possess at least 50 per centum of blood of the American Indian race.
A little light reading and a unique situation.
My thanks.
