To avoid serving in Iraq, 75 American soldiers have left their homes
and families and fled to Toronto By Maggie Gilmour

To avoid serving in Iraq, 300 American soldiers have left their homes
and families and fled to Canada, 75 of them to Toronto. Many assumed
they'd get a visa, settle down and live a normal life. But the
federal government has rejected their refugee claims and ordered them
deported. Some go into hiding; others wait for appeals and judicial
reviews of their cases. In the meantime, they've put down roots,
taking temp jobs and raising children, nostalgic for a time when
Canada was a haven for conscientious objectors.
