a non-voter, legal greencard-holding Canadian living in the U.S since he was 3 years old and a big supporter of MAGA and trump refused re-entry into the US at the Canadian-US border... he's shocked, I tell ya, shocked! They never see it coming, do they? They seem to think they're protected from trump's hubris because they agree with him on most of the bullshit. Right up till it happens to them.
"I'm a legal resident, green-card holder, I have been since 1981," the Peterborough, New Hampshire, resident told NBC 10 Boston.
Landry, who is currently in New Brunswick, Canada, works in manufacturing and has five children, several of whom he was traveling back to the U.S. with on July 6 when he was stopped by immigration officials in Houlton, Maine.
He told local news outlet WMUR that he was held for about five hours, adding: "I felt like I was being treated like a criminal," calling the experience "really a living nightmare."
Landry has two previous marks on his background, from 2004 and 2007 regarding a marijuana possession charge and driving on a suspended license. He has no criminal record since and says he received a suspended sentence and paid his fines.
gotta make those quotas, amirite?"I never thought that would threaten my status as a resident of the United States," he told NBC 10 Boston.
Landry, who legally can't vote because of his Canadian citizenship, said he was supportive of Trump and his platform, telling NBC 10 Boston: "I was definitely all for 'Make America Great Again,' and having a strong, unified country and a bright future for my five American children, but now I feel a little differently. I've been torn from my family. My life has been disregarded completely."
