In the United States. policies passed in the 19805 to support Central American refugees have been revived by local and state governments in response to President Trump\u2019s restrictive immigration agenda. In Canada. several cities that include Montreal. Toronto. and Vancouver. have declared themselves sanctuary cities. and there are active sanctuary campaigns across the country aimed at increasing access to municipal services and limiting local involvement in immigration policing. But what. exactly, is a sanctuary city? And what potential do they have for migrant justice movements? This presentation explores the history. purpose. and concrete challenges of sanctuary cities. with specific focus on their relevance to efforts to make Ottawa a more healthy, lust, and inclusive city for all residents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_event_type":[44],"cu_event_audience":[9],"class_list":["post-2738","cu_event","type-cu_event","status-publish","hentry","cu_event_type-connected","cu_event_audience-anyone"],"acf":{"cu_event_start_date":"2019-02-12T18:30:00","cu_event_end_date":"2019-02-12T00:00:00","cu_event_location_type":"in-person","cu_event_meeting_address_type":"on-campus","cu_building":false,"cu_event_meeting_room":"","cu_event_meeting_address_full":null,"cu_event_virtual_type":"tbd","cu_event_virtual_meeting_link":"","cu_post_thumbnail":false,"cu_event_cost":"","cu_event_registration":"","cu_event_secondary_button":"","cu_event_contact_name":"","cu_event_email":"","cu_event_phone":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/2738","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/2738\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2798,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/2738\/revisions\/2798"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2738"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_event_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_type?post=2738"},{"taxonomy":"cu_event_audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/mds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_audience?post=2738"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
