U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement says its agents in Canada don’t carry firearms, following questions about a potential ICE presence at upcoming FIFA World Cup games.
An ICE spokesperson says personnel from ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations branch work with Canadian partners on joint investigations involving narcotics, weapons smuggling and human trafficking.

The spokesperson says those agents don’t conduct operational activities in Canada, such as executing search warrants or making arrests.
ICE currently has five offices in Canada, including offices in Toronto and Vancouver, cities which will host World Cup games this summer.
Toronto city council last month passed a motion brought forward by Mayor Olivia Chow opposing the presence of any ICE agents at upcoming games taking place in the city.
A spokesperson for federal Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree said last week ICE has no authority or jurisdiction on Canadian soil.
Ice should redacted themselves
Ice should not be allowed in Canada other than USA consulate offices.. We govern ourselves. They certainly should not be allowed in public while armed.
Trump an his terrorist ICE organization are not welcome here
Ice agents have no place in Canada
“Immigration and Customs Enforcement”.
Why are they operating in Canada at all? Jurisdiction begins at the US border, not 200 miles inside a foreign country.
They don’t belong here! Get them out of my country!
All the trump supporters lol
ice does not belong in CANADA period, Mr. PrimeMinister… please stand up for Our values. Having them here is no different than the spousal abuse I have endured.
I think Canada should have ICE of our own,ones that will actually do some thing about all the illegals living off of our tax $$$$,as well as DOGE,to clean up some of the gov.waste and currupion,sending BILLIONS of our tax $ to other countries
Liberals and Liberal media love criminals in our country. To bad Canadians are done bending a knee to your propaganda.
Global censored my perfectly valid comment that was perfectly within their commenting policy.
Put it back
or are you against free speech as well
The Liberals have made it clear.Only criminals are allowed to carry guns in Canada. They need protection from Law Enforcement.
Ya, keep those assault style weapons out of the sight of Liberals. The country will be overwhelmed with soiled diapers and panicking lunacy if they are armed.
Those jackboots shouldn’t be allowed the cross the border.
Absolutely should not be in Canada. They are illegal. They are not welcome.
No business being here.
That’s a lie they should not be allowed in our country
