IRPR s. 41 - Direct back

Commentary

Canada and the US have both employed what is termed the "direct back policy", which is related to, but distinct from the Safe Third Country Agreement. The "direct back policy” refers to the process whereby an asylum seeker approaches a port of entry at a time when border officials are unable to process the claim and the asylum seeker is returned to the other country (primarily, returned to the U.S. from Canada) after having been given a scheduled time to return for an interview. Prior to 21 May 1986, claimants arriving from the United States to claim refugee status remained temporarily in the United States until a Canadian immigration inquiry could be scheduled. On 21 May 1986, a blanket admission policy was introduced, allowing individuals to wait inside Canada for determination of their claim, or to receive an automatic permit to remain and work, depending on their country of origin. From then on, until 2003, the direct back policy was used only in exceptional cases. However, it was used enough that policies considered its implications, for example a 1989 pamphlet entitled The backlog clearance process: Refugee claims made in Canada before January 1, 1989 described the Refugee Claimants Designated Class Regulations as applying to persons who were in Canada before January 1, 1989 or, prior to that date, must have been directed back to the United States to await an immigration inquiry scheduled after January 1, 1989. In 2003, after the Safe Third Country Agreement was signed, but before it was implemented, the direct back policy was used as there was a large and sudden influx of persons arriving from the United States who wanted to lodge their claims in Canada before the entry into force of the Safe Third Country Agreement. The procedure prompted a complaint in 2004 by several national and international organizations to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. The UNHCR subsequently criticized this policy on the basis that many claimants were not allowed to subsequently re-enter Canada to attend their scheduled interviews, writing in a report on the subject that "This has been especially problematic for asylum-seekers directed back from Canada to the United States, as a number were detained in the United States and unable to attend their scheduled interviews." Canadian authorities stated that they largely phased out the use of “direct back policies” as of August 2006, and going forward, they would be used only in exceptional cases. See the 2007 amendments to Canadian policy manuals for details regarding the current parameters of Canada's direct back policy. The “direct back policy” was revived again during the Covid-19 pandemic as part of the implementation of an Order-in-Council restricting travel into Canada.
