Defying Logic, Migrant Advocacy Groups Work with an Immigration Official to Curb Illegal Immigration — to Canada
By Dan Cadman on June 11, 2018
USA Today published an interesting piece about the Canadian government's latest public relations campaign to dissuade would-be migrants from transiting the United States to illegally cross the border into Canada.
With the announced termination of a number of protections such as Temporary Protected Status for various nationals who will be obliged to depart the United States, there has been a steady flow of such individuals heading north to seek asylum rather than risk deportation here.
While in U.S. terms the flow is a trickle, in Canadian terms it's a veritable flood — and because these individuals aren't covered by a bilateral agreement that would allow them to be handed back to U.S. authorities, once in Canada, they are a Canadian problem.
