Changes at the United States-Canada border have not stopped migrants from illegal crossings to seek asylum in Canada.
Scripps News National correspondent Axel Turcios has been covering the migrant crisis in the U.S. extensively. To take a closer look at the situation, he traveled to both sides of the border.
During his journey, he met Victoria Manhamo, a migrant mother traveling with her 11-month-old son Taylor.
"I'm following my husband and kids. We have been running away. Life is not safe," she said.
