Kimberly Rivera: Rivera

Citizenship And Immigration Canada Dept: When she got in trouble for that, she secretly stopped carrying ammunition, according to The Star. I m just a bit overwhelmed. I don t want to face reality. I respect Canada s law. I m going to take it one step at a time so I don t have a meltdown, said Rivera, who was surrounded by supporters and peace activists. But it s is very difficult and long before U.S. war resister Kimberly Rivera and her family fled to Canada in 2007, she stopped carrying her rifle while on duty as a soldier in Iraq. On Friday, the quiet Texan spoke out for the first time after learning this week from Citizenship and Immigration Canada that she had been given a negative pre-removal risk assessment and must leave the country by Sept. 20.
