Donald Trump: u.s.-Mexico Border and Risk Trump

donald trump: McCallum said the federal government was aware of a possible spike in asylum-seekers long before Donald Trump was elected president in the U.S. There would come a point where a visa could be reimposed, he said but would not specify what number of claims might trigger that, according to CBC. Canada retains its sovereignty on this issue. The visa lift is set to kick in Dec. 1. There comes a point where it would become unsustainable, but we are hoping that point will not arrive. Benefit outweighed risk Trump campaigned on promises to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border and to swiftly deport undocumented workers and illegal residents. CBC News has learned officials at IRCC and other departments have held high-level meetings to discuss a potential flood of Mexican asylum-seekers due to both the visa lift and the result of the U.S. election.
