Abstract
This article provides a review of the functioning and legality of the Safe Third Country Agreement between Canada and the United States, placing it in the broader context of systemic factors that generate and exacerbate the vulnerability of protection seekers. It offers a critical evaluation of what the legal challenges against the STCA reveal about the promises and limitations of safe-country-related litigation and the future of the Agreement.
