“Mass Immigration – Follow the money”

The federal government has two possible paths out of the dead end at Roxham Road. The first route goes through Washington, D.C. – and is largely out of Ottawa’s hands. The second goes through Ottawa – and is entirely within Canada’s control. The best option? Pursuing both paths, simultaneously.

Taking the road through Washington means amending the 2002 Safe Third Country Agreement (STCA), which currently only covers official border crossings, so it applies to the entire Canada-U.S. border. That could be as simple as adding a few words to the existing accord. But that can only happen if the Americans agree, and despite years of quiet diplomacy, they have yet to do so. Unless Prime Minister Justin Trudeau can persuade President Joe Biden to do Canada a favour, then Plan B – the road through Ottawa – may be the only open road.

MONTREAL—The RCMP calls them “southbounders.”

They follow a perilous route that leads most often from Central America to Canada and then across the border to the United States.

According to officials on both sides of the border, there has been a sharp and inexplicable surge in the number of people making the dangerous journey in recent months, trekking through snow-covered woods, often under the cover of night and in sub-zero temperatures, sometimes with young children in tow.

The Star keeps pushing that open borders madness. Have they no concern for Canadians being squeezed out of housing?  Denied ready access to medical care?

The American Red Cross has maps and guides for migrants to make the dangerous journeys to the U.S.-Mexico border, according to documents exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

When future historians look back on the decade of the 2020s, they’ll likely be struck by two global demographic trends: 1) Aging populations across most of the world and 2) Populations that are now in outright decline in a large group of countries. The two trends are related. In North America, Europe and parts of Asia, an increasing share of the population is moving into retirement, meaning death rates will climb as more people enter their twilight years. Coupled with generally low birth rates, rapid aging is setting the stage for dwindling populations in many jurisdictions.

Asylum seekers who arrive on small boats will be removed from Britain and prohibited from returning or claiming citizenship under laws to be announced on Tuesday.

Rishi Sunak and Suella Braverman, the home secretary, will bring forward legislation to make all such asylum claims inadmissible. The government will seek to introduce powers to detain tens of thousands of people and place the home secretary under a legal duty to remove them “as soon as reasonably practicable”.

In Niagara Falls, Roxham Road asylum seekers find less space and more strife as tourist season nears

Hundreds are being ‘dumped’ from Quebec into the Niagara region only to be told they’re not wanted, advocates say, as governments give few specifics on next steps

It had been a long time since Marie Saintil had last been to church, when she found herself at the pulpit of the Faith Tabernacle in Welland, Ont., on a recent Sunday evening.

“Est-ce que tout le monde parle Créole?” she asked the small Haitian congregation, a half dozen or so of whom had been shuttled to the service in their Sunday best from the various hotels in nearby Niagara Falls where they are living. The congregation nods in unison – yes, they all speak Créole.
