Border communities are bracing for another spike in irregular crossings. We know what the Conservative plan is, to follow Trump by shutting down the border and turning away refugees. However, we have not seen any plan from the government. People are risking life and limb to cross the border, but the Prime Minister has refused to suspend the safe third country agreement.

"Mr. Speaker, border communities are bracing for another spike in irregular crossings. We know what the Conservative plan is. It is to follow Trump by shutting down the border and turning away refugees. However, we have not seen any plan from the government.
People are risking life and limb to cross the border, but the Prime Minister has refused to suspend the safe third country agreement. We are seeing troubling comments from the Prime Minister, suggesting that some migrants are trying to game the system.
