active-duty troops: Following a break on Sunday, the migrants, many of them fleeing violence in their home countries, resumed their march towards the United States border, according to Toronto Star. As fatigue from the heat, distance, and poor sanitary conditions has set in, the numbers of people participating in the march has slowly dwindled, but a significant group are determined to get to the United States. Some of the thousands of Central American migrants rest after arriving into the small town of Santiago Niltepec on Oct. 29 in Santiago Niltepec, Mexico. On Monday an official said that the Pentagon will deploy up to 5,000 active-duty troops to the U.S.-Mexico border in an effort to prevent members of the migrant caravan from illegally entering the country. In an interview Monday, Trump said the U.S. would build tent cities for asylum seekers. Spencer Platt / Getty Images Trump, eager to keep voters focused on illegal immigration in the lead-up to the elections, stepped up his dire warnings about the caravans, tweeting, This is an invasion of our Country and our Military is waiting for you! But any migrants who complete the long trek to the southern U.S. border already face major hurdles both physical and bureaucratic to being allowed into the United States. (www.immigrantscanada.com).

ezra shanken: We go through times of light together and we go through times of darkness together, according to CTV. Right now, we are going through a time of mourning, said Ezra Shanken, CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver. The Jewish Community Centre of Greater Vancouver hosted the event on Sunday afternoon, as a way to show its solidarity with those impacted by the senseless tragedy. Saturday morning, a gunman opened fire during a baby-naming ceremony inside Tree of Life Synagogue, killing 11 and injuring six people. When people are killed in a sanctuary, it's exactly the opposite of what one expects or what one hopes for of being a safe place, said Rabbi Jonathan Infeld with Congregation Beth Israel. The suspect, Robert Gregory Bowers, is now facing 11 state charges of homicide, six counts of aggravated assault and 13 counts of ethnic intimidation. (www.immigrantscanada.com).

inclusion: Stephen Poloz, Governor of the Bank of Canada, believes the recently agreed USMCA is sufficient reason to anticipate continued vigorous growth in the Canadian economy, according to Toronto Star. Sean Kilpatrick / THE CANADIAN PRESS The attack is on Muslims, despite a noncommittal inclusion of crucifixes in the ban, a transparent whitewash of the policy's true intent. Its proposed edict prohibiting Qu bec government employees from wearing the chador, niqab or burqa and other religious symbols in the workplace is unconstitutional, unenforceable and inadvertently calculated to diminish the future prosperity of Quebecers. While directed only at the Qu bec civil service, the policy of course strengthens the hand of any xenophobe Qu bec employer in the private-sector seeking to impose the same edict on its workers. Qu bec has already suffered mightily from this aspect of its culture. Canada is in a fierce competition for the world's best and brightest talent, and Qu bec has just reminded the world that it is hostile to nation-building immigrants who can't trace their heritage to Champlain.

troy tulowitzki: That changed around 2015, according to CTV. The Jays shot up in the standings, bolstered by newcomers Josh Donaldson and Troy Tulowitzki, who came with bobbleheads that attracted droves of collectors. The Toronto Blue Jays, whose bobbleheads he coveted most, Wlodarski says were just horrid and their merchandise were hardly desirable. The shift taught Wlodarski -- the owner of about 650 bobbleheads at his collecting peak, who insists his love of the figurines is about passion not profit -- plenty about how to master the collectibles market. They say maximizing what can be made or nabbing an item for as little as possible can be tough because it takes a mix of timing and luck. The market can be fraught with high price tags and even higher emotions, but experts say there are tens of thousands of dollars to be to made, if you're willing to part with high-value items like baseball cards, comics, coins, stamps and vintage film posters.

In Toronto itself, where more than half of the 2.6 million population was born in another country, voters elected only five non-whites to the 25-person council, a participation rate of 20 percent that sounds more impressive than it is, mainly because the number of electoral wards was cut almost in half.

mid-year surveys: Border Security Minister Bill Blair pointed to the fact that, compared to last summer, this summer there was not a major surge in the number of irregular border crossers apprehended by RCMP. Adrian Wyld / THE CANADIAN PRESS This monitoring includes internal polling conducted by the Immigration Department to track public opinion about asylum seekers, according to Toronto Star. Two mid-year surveys of 2,000 Canadians, conducted by the department in March, suggested Canadians were not overly confident about Canada's ability to manage the border at unguarded points-of-entry and had little sense of obligation about accepting asylum seekers from the United States. Documents released to The Canadian Press under access-to-information law show department officials receive weekly internal updates on media coverage and public response to issues related to asylum seekers coming irregularly into the country across the Canada-U.S. border. Fewer than half of respondents 43 per cent in a telephone survey and 35 per cent in an online survey agreed that Canada is taking appropriate steps to manage irregular border crossings.

anti-immigrant base: The proposal amounts to a sweeping use of presidential power to fortify the border and impose the kind of aggressive immigration restrictions and enforcement measures that Trump has made his signature pursuit, according to Toronto Star. Trump is weighing the new measures as he prepares to order 800 to 1,000 U.S. Army troops to help secure the southern border, Defense Department officials said Thursday. The effort would be the starkest indication yet of Trump's election-season push to play to his anti-immigrant base as his party fights to keep control of Congress. NICHOLAS KAMM / AFP/GETTY IMAGES The plan is expected to prompt a swift challenge in federal courts. As part of that effort, the president has capitalized this month on the thousands of Central American migrants trekking north through Mexico. The move would be the most drastic in a series of steps that Trump has taken or threatened to take in recent days including preparations Thursday to send as many as 1,000 active-duty Army troops to help secure the southern border as he works to stop what he has called an onslaught of immigrants only days before the midterm elections.

cent inclusion: The organization called on networks to reach 10 per cent inclusion for LGBTQ characters in prime-time in the next two years to ensure that entertainment reflects the world in which it is created, GLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis said in a statement, according to CTV. The culture has changed for LGBTQ people but America is the midst of extraordinary tumult, she said. While the percentage of regularly seen LGBTQ characters on scripted broadcast series rose from last year's 6.4 per cent to hit an all-time high of 8.8 per cent, or 75 characters out of a total 857, GLAAD said the TV industry is still falling short. That means what happens on our television screens is now more important than ever before, Ellis said. The study singled out two series as history-making the FX drama Pose, which featured the largest number of transgender series regulars ever on a U.S. series, and CW's Supergirl, with TV's first transgender superhero, Nia Nal, played by Nicole Maines, appearing this season. Stories that explore the lives and identities of characters once invisible on screen remain critical to accelerating acceptance for LGBTQ people. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
