Travel bans that are part of an executive order from U.S. President Donald Trump are starting to have a ripple effect in Canada.
Rashid Ahmed is a permanent resident after moving to Saskatoon from Pakistan.
While Pakistan isn’t including in the seven countries on the ban list, Ahmed still cancelled a trip to see family in Tennessee because of the uncertainty in the United States.
“I was planning on having my birthday party with my grandma and uncle,” he told 650 CKOM Sunday. “Now the situation is way worse so I don’t think they would even let me in the States.”
