Illegal Immigrant Apprehensions Across Canada-US Border Jump 846 Percent in Fiscal 2023: CBP

Apprehensions and encounters by the U.S. Border Patrol in the northern Swanton Sector—ports of entry in Vermont, New Hampshire, and northeastern New York—have ballooned by over 800 percent this fiscal year, with Mexicans accounting for the majority of illegal individuals trying to cross into the United States from Canada.

In January 2023, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials at the Swanton Sector recorded 367 apprehensions and encounters, surpassing the past 12 years’ January apprehensions, which had totaled 344. For the fiscal year-to-date from October 2022 to January 2023, there has been an 846 percent jump in encounters and apprehensions compared to the same period in fiscal year 2022.

Quebec premier wants Trudeau to discourage asylum seekers from coming to Canada

Quebec Premier François Legault called on Trudeau on Wednesday to discourage the migrants who have been using Roxham Road from coming to Canada. He told reporters in Quebec City he thinks many people are claiming asylum in Canada because of a 2017 Trudeau tweet saying the country would welcome people fleeing persecution.

“It’s about time that Justin Trudeau makes a new tweet to say, ‘Don’t come anymore,’ because we’ve exceeded our welcoming capacity,” he said. He added that Quebec faces a shortage of housing and its schools and hospitals cannot handle the newcomers.

Minister Denies Being Influenced by McKinsey On Immigration Targets

Sean Fraser – almost certainly lying.

Immigration Minister Sean Fraser told the House of Commons government operations committee on Feb. 15 that the involvement of consulting firm McKinsey & Company in his department had no influence on how he determined immigration targets for the country.

“I don’t have a relationship with representatives of McKinsey or Dominic Barton, if anybody had been curious,” Fraser said.

“The company had not advised me directly or influenced the decision-making about our immigration levels plan.”

He’s a Liberal which is the same as saying he’s a compulsive liar.

More Americans are expressing their unhappiness with the level of immigration into the U.S., with less than 30 percent saying they are satisfied with the influx of new residents.

The data represents the lowest number for the U.S. in over a decade.

Roxham Rd. asylum seekers are being transferred to Ontario because Quebec is full up!

QUEBEC — The vast majority of asylum seekers arriving at the Roxham Rd. crossing last weekend were transferred directly to Ontario, Quebec Immigration Minister Christine Fréchette revealed Tuesday.

On the same day the Quebec government upped the pressure on Washington to amend the Safe Third Country Agreement between Canada and the United States to cover irregular crossing points, Fréchette said Ottawa has taken heed of Quebec’s position that it has reached its maximum capacity when it comes to asylum seekers.

Trudeau’s Mass Immigration Scam: Canada needs to build 50% more homes to accommodate immigrants even though over 50% of “permanent residents” can’t be bothered to become citizens

40% decline in permanent residents becoming Canadian citizens since 2001, data shows

StatCan numbers reveal the percentage of permanent residents who become Canadians has plummeted over the past 20 years.

The Institute for Canadian Citizenship says Statistics Canada data points to a 40 per cent decline in citizenship uptake since 2001.

In 2021, nearly 45.7 per cent of permanent residents who’d been in Canada for less than 10 years became citizens.

That’s down from 60 per cent in 2016, and 75.1 per cent in 2001.

“But ultimately, what’s changing is that people have decided that they’re less interested in being `Team Canada.”’


So we have to build 50% more housing for people who don’t want to stay here. 

Canada needs to build 50 per cent more homes as Ottawa plans for higher immigration levels: report

As Canada prepares to ramp up immigration levels, a new report says the country will need to build 50 per cent more housing than what’s already being planned.

The report, published by economists from Desjardins on Monday, says in order to keep up with the federal government’s immigration targets without causing substantial increases to home prices, 100,000 more homes need to be constructed annually in 2023 and 2024.

“Increasing the housing supply beyond the typical demand response would also take pressure off prices but requires extraordinary policy intervention and resolve,” the authors wrote. “Indeed, we estimate that housing starts would have to increase immediately by almost 50 per cent nationally relative to our baseline scenario and stay there through 2024 to offset the price gains from the increase in federal immigration.”

Masses are let in who regard Canada as nothing more than a stepping stone to elsewhere.

Canada’s immigration policy is a scam that does not benefit citizens.

Quebec tells Eric Adams to stop buying NY migrants bus tickets

The government of Canada’s second-most populated province is demanding that Mayor Eric Adams “immediately” stop helping migrants illegally enter the Great White North, as recently revealed by The Post.

“Any form of assistance to migrants crossing the border where it is strictly forbidden to do so should stop immediately,” a spokesperson for Quebec Premier Francois Legault said.

“We understand that the situation of migrants in New York poses major challenges, but the situation in Quebec and particularly in Montreal is even worse and constitutes an important humanitarian issue.”

The rise of Ireland’s anti-migrant protests

Ireland has an immigration problem. Almost a year after refugees started to arrive from Ukraine, leaving state capacity buckled and local communities unnerved, two very different expressions of civic disorder have emerged. In one, migrants are housed in cubicle dorms in office buildings or, even worse, in tents. In the other, grassroots anti-migrant protests are sweeping across the country, rallying around the slogan “Ireland is Full”. There were 307 anti-migrant protests in 2022, while 2023 has already seen 64. At the latest demonstration in Dublin, on Tuesday, more than 2,000 protestors took to the streets.

NYC Migrants Bussed To Canada Head Back After A Look At Trudeau’s Broken Shithole State

Some migrants bused to Canada already heading back to NYC

Blame Canada.

Overrun by asylum-seeking migrants sent to the city from southern border states, New York has been offering free bus tickets to the Canadian border for migrants wanting to start a new life up north, but some are turning straight back around.

Ilze Thielmann, the director of nonprofit Team TLC — which has been organizing busses to Plattsburgh, where there is an unofficial crossing to Montreal — said the reality isn’t as rosy as people expect.


Texas Bused Migrants North. Then New York Did the Same.

New York officials, who once condemned Texas leaders for busing migrants from the southern border, calling the treatment inhumane, are buying bus tickets for newcomers who want to go north and seek asylum in Canada.

Mayor Eric Adams had originally welcomed the migrants, but he has since begun echoing the points of southern leaders, saying the city was buckling from the strain of absorbing more than 42,000 people in need.

Now, city officials are assisting the relocation of a growing number of migrants traveling to New York’s northern border, where crossings are surging.

Interpreter’s alleged use of impostors sparks major review at Canada’s refugee board

The Immigration and Refugee Board has identified almost 200 cases involving a contracted interpreter, who is facing fraud-related charges for allegedly dispatching unauthorized individuals to do the work on his behalf at virtual hearings.

The arrest of a certified interpreter in Kiswahili/Swahili, Kinyarwanda and Kirundi has raised privacy concerns for vulnerable asylum seekers as the board has transitioned increasingly to online hearings since the early days of the pandemic.
