greg janzen: JOHN WOODS / THE CANADIAN PRESS Migrants from Somalia cross into Canada from the U.S. early in the morning on Feb. 26, according to Toronto Star. Many of the border-crossers at Emerson have passed through Minneapolis, home of a large Somali community. More than 200 people have walked across open fields and through ditches near Emerson since Jan. 1. John Woods / The Canadian Press By Steve Lambert The Canadian Press Wed., March 8, 2017 EMERSON, MAN. Nineteen asylum-seekers braved a fierce blizzard and whiteout conditions on the open prairie to cross into Canada near the Manitoba border community of Emerson, the area's reeve said Wednesday. Some heavy snow squalls, zero visibility, and these people are walking north straight into the wind, Greg Janzen said. It was not pretty out here. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
