Whitecaps fan club cancels U.S. away trips due to Trump travel ban


The Southsiders, a "loud and proud" squad of Vancouver Whitecaps' fans, are taking a stance against U.S. President Donald Trump's executive order enacting a travel ban against citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries. The fan group will no longer organize its traditional away trips to Seattle and Portland because it is worried not all members would be able to attend. The bus trips were a popular event and canceling the trips was difficult, he said, but it was the right thing to do. Trump's travel ban currently bans all Syrian refugees for an unstated amount of time, other refugees for at least four months and citizens from Yemen, Syria, Sudan, Somalia, Iraq, Libya and Iran for 90 days.
