The Canada Border Services Agency has confirmed that 12 protesters at an international student hunger strike that’s spanned multiple weeks in Calgary have been identified as “potentially inadmissible,” after officers attended.

In an email to Juno News, the border security agency said that 20 individuals at the Portage College protest had their immigration status verified, while 12 activists were identified as “possibly inadmissible” to Canada.

The border enforcement organization told Juno that the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) receives referrals before conducting inland investigations when a person’s legal status in Canada is unclear or when active immigration warrants are involved.
