Illegal Migrants: Video

Opposition Parties Dept: Toews said Wednesday in Vancouver that the Canadian government has information that criminal smuggling networks are adapting by "broadening" with new bases and points of departure since the highly publicized arrival of hundreds of Tamil migrants aboard the MV Sun Sea from Thailand last August, according to CBC. "We think not only will it deter individuals, but in fact it will make it easier to prosecute human smugglers," he said and canada's immigration and refugee system is under increased attack from human smugglers and new rules are needed to deal with the "growing concern," says Public Safety Minister Vic Toews. The minister would not elaborate during an "update" session with reporters in Vancouver, but again urged opposition parties to support Bill C-49 the Conservative government's proposed legislation aimed at punishing anyone who smuggles illegal migrants to Canada.
