Canada will offer temporary residency to any travelers stranded by U.S. President Donald Trump's orders temporarily barring people from seven Muslim-majority countries, a senior official said on Sunday.

Canada's immigration minister says Canadian permanent residents from seven Muslim-majority countries targeted by a U.S. travel ban will still be able to cross the border.

Canadians who are dual citizens of Iraq, Iran, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Libya and Yemen will not be allowed to enter the United States under an order issued by Donald Trump.
