Canadian Trump supporter feels 'a little differently' after he's denied reentry to US with kids in tow

NBC Boston News reports Immigration Enforcement has blocked a New Hampshire man from returning home to his partner and five children after a family trip to Canada.

"They denied me reentry and said, 'Don't come back or we will detain you,' and the only way for me to get back in was to see an immigration judge," Chris Landry told NBC10 Boston from the Canadian province of New Brunswick.

Nearly 20 years ago, Landry faced charges of marijuana possession and driving with a suspended license. He was given a suspended sentence and paid his fines, and medical marijuana use is now legal in New Hampshire. Landry told reporters he's had no criminal record since then.

Landry, who has been a legal resident in the US since he was 3 years old and has supporter President Donald Trump, said he blames the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration for shattering his family.

"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," Landry said. "I've been torn from my family. My life has been disregarded completely."

"Possessing a green card is a privilege, not a right,” US Customs and Border Protection told NBC10 Boston. “And under our nation's laws, our government has the authority to revoke a green card if our laws are broken and abused. Lawful Permanent Residents presenting at a US port of entry with previous criminal convictions may be subject to mandatory detention and/or may be asked to provide additional documentation to be set up for an immigration hearing."

Officials intercepted the 46-year-old Landry on Sunday at the Houlton, Maine border. Landry was with three of his children at the time of the stop.

"It's just very uncertain for me right now," he says. "I might end up spending the rest of my life in Canada. Who knows if I'll ever have the right to reenter the United States at this point?"

The Trump supporter has since turned to Democrats in New Hampshire's congressional delegation for help, requesting they intervene on his behalf.

The office of Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-N.HH) told reporters it is currently working with Landry.

“Helping constituents navigate federal agencies and processes is a core function of Senator Hassan's office."

Officials with the offices of Reps. Maggie Goodlander and Chris Pappas, also Democrats, told NBC10 Boston they were "deeply concerned” about Landry’s removal.
