By accepting US or Canadian Passports and acquiescing to this solution would essentially have ceded the issue of sovereign recognition on a very significant level.
They are NOT part of the US or Canada, they have their own sovereign nation and should be recognized and accepted as such!

Ok. Like I said, if they want to be a separate nation, then be a seperate nation, with all that entails. Some (perhaps even the majority) people in foreign countries wait months and years waiting for a visa for entry. If the Iroquis tribe wants to be a nation, they can't expect to be treated any differently than the other nations who don't have formalized relations or treaties with the UK.

There's an old saying that's probably appropriate here - be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.
