The editorial
Source: Hindustan Times · 12 Nov 2024Canadian authorities are on high alert, closely monitoring the US border in anticipation of a potential surge in migrants seeking asylum following Donald Trump's win against Kamala Harris. The anticipated increase in asylum-seekers is driven by the new administration’s promise to execute the largest mass deportation in US history, which could push many undocumented migrants, especially those from minority communities, to seek refuge in neighboring Canada. During his campaign, Trump often claimed that immigrants were ‘poisoning the blood of our country’.
‘We're on high alert. All of our eyes are looking at the border to see what's going to happen... because we know that Trump's stance on immigration might drive up illegal and irregular migration to Canada,’ a Royal Canadian Mounted Police spokesman, Sergeant Charles Poirier, told news agency AFP.
