“January and February, we were getting updates from the RCMP and (Canada Border Services
Agency),” Falk said Monday. “We’ve been making the same inquiries from the same individuals,
and they tell us that Ottawa has gagged them and that they are unable to provide us that
information.”
Falk said he believes the number of illegal border crossers is rising, and said he’s seen it first-
hand.
“I came through the border two weeks ago on a Saturday night, and there were more than a
dozen individuals at the Emerson port of entry, just waiting to be processed. And this was on a
Saturday night. We know the numbers are increasing, and that’s something that they don’t want
Canadians to know

http://www.torontosun.com/2017/05/05/canada-on-track-for-all-time-high-in-asylum-claims
• USA and Canada need to beef up security/monitoring of the border
• Federal funds need to be made available to provincial, municipal and community groups to
support the handling of asylum seekers.
