What Happened

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement says its agents do not carry guns while operating in Canada ahead of the FIFA World Cup. ICE personnel work with Canadian partners on joint investigations involving narcotics, weapons smuggling, and human trafficking. The agency operates from five Canadian offices, including in World Cup host cities Toronto and Vancouver. ICE has no authority or jurisdiction on Canadian soil. Toronto city council previously opposed ICE deployment at World Cup venues.
