The University of Saskatchewan is calling for an end to the travel ban brought in by President Donald Trump on Friday.

President Trump issued an executive order limiting foreign entry from seven countries. One part of the order imposes a 90-day ban on all entry to the United States from countries with terrorism concerns.

The White House said those countries are Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen — all predominantly Muslim countries.

"The executive order has the potential to negatively affect our research and teaching partnerships with U.S. institutions, conference participation, study abroad, and interactions with U.S. colleagues with common academic interests," wrote University of Saskatchewan President Peter Stoicheff. "We are working at our globally connected university to understand the full impact the executive order will have on our students, faculty and staff. We will keep our community informed."

Meanwhile, Saskatoon Mayor Charlie Clark said the city will continue to welcome refugees to the city.

"I offer any support I can to Prime Minister Trudeau and Premier Wall in their commitment to assist people affected by the recent U.S. refugee ban," wrote Clark in a statement. "We will continue to welcome refugees and New Canadians to Saskatoon. I believe our strength as a city lies in our capacity to be an inclusive, resilient, and compassionate city for all."

Over the weekend, Premier Brad Wall said the province stands ready to help anyone affected by the travel ban.
