Immigration: Canadian Counterparts

State Department Official Dept: Since the U.S.-born players had been cleared, officials from the United Kingdom had promised to issue them a one-time visa, he said. However, whether the team’s Canadian-born players would be allowed to travel was still up in the air, he added, according to Globe And Mail. However, a U.S. State Department official would not confirm whether the team would be allowed to travel on their Iroquois passports. “We just got of the phone with the U.S. State department, who are going to clear ... the players who are under their jurisdiction,” Percy Abrams, executive director of the Iroquois Nationals, said on Wednesday. “We are going to be making contact with the U.S. State Department’s Canadian counterparts and hopefully they will offer the same,” he said. As reported in the news.
