It’s the Fourth of July, but for some people with ties to both Canada and the U.S., the day feels more conflicted than celebratory. As relations between the two countries sour, dual citizens and cross-border families are finding it harder to navigate their identities. We speak to three people who share what it’s like to live between two countries that no longer feel so friendly. Sarah Doué grew up in Texas and now lives in Nova Scotia and has considered giving up her U.S. citizenship. Bryce McNeil says being Canadian in America has never felt more complicated. And Georganne Burke is planning on moving back to Florida, saying a rise in anti-American sentiment has made her feel unwelcome in Canada.
