The Windsor Public School Board has canceled all student field trips to the United States following President Trump's ban, the Windsor Star reports.
According to the Star, Greater Essex County District Superintendent Clara Howitt said "Paramount for us is student safety … we really don’t know what will happen to our students at the border."
One of the trips scheduled was a trip to the Holocaust Memorial Center in Farmington Hills, the Star reports.
The school board even contacted U.S. border authorities before making the decision. According to the Star, they were advised that any student who were citizens of the seven countries, which are Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Sudan, Yemen and Somalia, wouldn't be allowed into the country.
"If ever there was a point in which the world needed to learn about racism and prejudice and the unspeakable truths that need to be spoken, (now is the time)," Windsor West MP Brian Masse told the Star.
