In the first eight months of 2022, Royal Canadian Mounted Police intercepted 23,358 asylum seekers crossing into the country at unofficial entry points, 13 per cent more than all of 2017, when an influx of border-crossers at Roxham Road, near the Quebec-New York border, made international headlines.
Because of this agreement asylum-seekers cross between ports of entry and turn themselves in to police to pursue refugee claims. Canada is trying to extend the agreement so it applies across the entire land border. If Canada does not want to deal with irregular crossers, it should scrap the agreement that bars them from crossing at regular entry points, said Janet Dench, executive director at Canadian Council for Refugees, which is taking the Canadian government to court.
Earlier this year, the federal government transported 1,922 asylum seekers to neighboring Ontario after the Quebec government said it could not handle the volume.

YAY more liberal voters! For shits and giggles, go check how many asylum seekers are still on welfare 3yrs after landing.
Nobody patrolls our border. It's a joke. This whole situation is at Roxham rd should have never happened to begin with. Poor leadership from the libs.

Wasn’t this a Trump issue?
Why tf are you calling them 'asylum seekers'? They are illegal, economic migrants.
Send them to trudeaus home just as they are doing in USA by sending them to Pelosi and Marthas Vinyard. Let their problem become his for a change instead of taxpayers. These are illegal border crossers not asylum seekers!!
Did they fill out the Arrivecan? Are they vaxxed to the max? Were they tested for a cold? Why were they not arrested as soon as the stepped over the line? How is this allowed, under what rule/law?
So it really didn't have anything to do with Trump afterall.
You mean the TrudeauCorruption 'voter importation and distribution' scheme?
Unreal! Are they vaxxed? I doubt it
I was wondering when this bit of news was going to come up.
LA_Stoffel Bums shopping for a better deal
WTF are we doing. send these criminals back where they came from.
Thank a liberal! Money on Trudeau and Biden have a deal! What percentage are criminals? TrudeauMustGoNow
