Hey, #Canada. The US is sending its homeland state police, ICE, to the Olympics in Milan. Do they expect to send ICE to the #FIFA #WorldCup matches in #Vancouver? Let’s get out ahead of this now.

“[City Counsellor and Green Party mayoral candidate Pete] Fry noted there are already ICE personnel in Vancouver working with the U.S. Consulate, but suggested many residents would object to agents being deployed during the World Cup.”
I’m sorry, what?
Not enough to boost this: it should be added to this thread. Hey, #Canada, #ICE has offices here, including in #Vancouver. They “conduct criminal investigations to protect the [US]. . . from dangerous transnational organizations like terrorist groups and drug cartels.” ICE agents here also “help. . . track and detain known and potential terrorists before they can carry out attacks against the United States and its allies.”
“Detain.”
“Terrorists.”
“And its allies.”
