schema:articleBody	Canada on Friday appealed a court decision that invalidated an agreement with Washington barring people from seeking asylum if they arrived from US soil. The controversial 2004 deal, known as the Safe Third Country Agreement (STCA), says anyone applying for asylum in either the United States or Canada must file their application in whichever country they enter first. However, a federal court judge last month ruled that the pact violates the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. In a statement, Public Safety Minister Bill Blair said the government found "factual and legal errors" in the decision that it cannot let stand. "There are important legal principles to be determined in this case, and it is the responsibility of the government of Canada to appeal to ensure clarity on the legal framework governing asylum law," he said. Canada, he added, remains committed to "providing protection to those who need it most by offering refuge to the world's most vulnerable people." The government also continues to "engage actively" with Washington to ensure that the pact respects international obligations, he said. The agreement has been repeatedly denounced by rights groups, and asylum seekers challenged it by arguing that the United States under President Donald Trump could no longer be considered a "safe" country. To skirt the rule and guarantee their asylum application will be considered in Canada, tens of thousands of migrants have passed into the country through unofficial border crossings. The STCA remains in effect until January, while the appeal is heard. amc/ft
