Canadian born U.S raised. Many Canadian/American citizens refer to themselves as Camerican, while U.S citizens raised in Canada refer to themselves as Ameridians. The term Camerican is a play of both countries. Canadian and American citizens do not require visas to enter each other’s country. Upon verification by both government’s, Native Canadian Indians with a blood quantum of 50% or more fall under the Jay Treaty Act are permitted to live, work, and reside in both Canada and the United States they are classified by homeland security as category S-13 (American Indian born in Canada).

In 1776 John Jay made an agreement with Native Canadian Indigenous Tribes to permit entry free entry between the two nations if the First Nation Peoples’ agreed to assist the U.S Government in combat against the British Empire for which they agreed during the American War. The controversy surrounding the treaty persists today.

In the U.S, American Indian’s born in Canada are restricted from voting in elections and many people believe the government should revise the Jay Treaty both in favor and against the Indian Act.
