War Resisters Support Campaign Dept: The War Resisters Support Campaign says Kimberly Rivera , who lived in Toronto with her family, was immediately arrested, detained and transferred to U.S. military custody after presenting herself at the border, according to The Star. It also says Rivera's husband and her four children two of whom were born in Canada crossed the border separately so the kids wouldn't have to see their mother being detained and an American soldier who sought refuge in Canada after she became disillusioned with the Iraq war has turned herself over to the United States. The group says Rivera is now waiting to be transferred to a different military facility where she faces punishment for being absent from her unit.
