For a year and a half, almost 50,000 migrants had walked into Canada via Quebec's Roxham Road to seek asylum. Then, at midnight on the morning of March 25th, Roxham Road – and the immigration loophole that made it a famous irregular border crossing – effectively closed. CBC Montreal reporter Verity Stevenson has been speaking to migrants who arrived at Roxham soon after the change, only to suddenly discover their journey would be cut short. Today, she brings us their stories, as well as what she saw in towns south of the U.S. border that are hosting hundreds of asylum seekers rejected from Canada.

The CBC's Alexandre Silberman spoke with two asylum seekers in Moncton and the people who are trying to help them.

Just days after Canada's official unofficial border crossing at Roxham Road was shut down, eight bodies were recovered from the waters of the St. Lawrence River near the Canada-US border. The bodies belong to migrants believed to be travelling from Canada to the United States, but without the Roxham crossing, advocates say we should expect to see more dangerous attempts to cross the border that could end in tragedy.What changed to close Roxham Road, and was it the right call? What comes next for the border, and those seeking to cross it? Could the tragedy on the St. Lawrence have been avoided and how should Canada balance the needs of border security and a migrant crisis that is only going to accelerate in the years to come?GUEST: Nicholas Keung, Immigration Reporter, Toronto Star

Guest: Christina Clark-Kazak, associate professor in the School of Public and International Affairs at the University of Ottawa In the aftermath of U.S. President Joe Biden's recent visit to Canada, changes were made to the Safe Third Country Agreement, a key immigration policy to close a loophole that enabled migrants to claim asylum in the U.S. or Canada through unofficial ports of entry. After Roxham Road acted as unofficial route into Quebec for over 40,000 migrants last year, the route is now closed and experts fear this will only drive people to take more dangerous paths. This episode was produced by Alexis Green, Paulo Marques and Raju Mudhar. Audio source: CBC and CTV

The change came swiftly. A few hours after being announced by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and U.S. President Joe Biden, the rules at Roxham Road had tightened.Globe reporter Frédérik-Xavier Duhamel went to the popular unofficial border crossing and spoke to migrants trying to make the trek as changes to the Safe Third Country Act now limit who can claim asylum in Canada via that passage.Questions?

In this episode, migration expert Christina Clark-Kazak explains the devastating consequences of last week's meeting between United States President Joe Biden and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The meeting resulted in significant changes to a cross-border agreement and has already impacted the lives of thousands of asylum seekers attempting to make a life in Canada.We explore what these changes will mean for those people searching for a safe home who are now being turned away from Canada. We also discuss the racialization of Canada's immigration policies.Christina Clark-Kazak, an Associate Professor in the School of Public and International Affairs at the University of Ottawa urges Canadians to think critically about who we accept as refugees, and who we turn away. She said:"It's important for us, as Canadians, to have this discussion and think very carefully about why certain categories of people coming from certain areas are welcomed with open arms and other people, we're effectively just slamming the door in their faces."##  Claiming asylum in CanadaWhat the new amendment basically does is close any irregular border crossings for asylum seekers hoping to cross the U.S.-Canada border.One of these irregular border crossings is at Roxham Road. Roxham Road is a rural road in upstate New York that crosses the border with the province of Québec. And last year, around 40,000 people arrived at this unofficial border crossing, hoping to find their way into new lives in Canada.To look at it by numbers, this new amendment to the irregular U.S.-Canada land crossing is in sharp contrast to Canada's limitless welcome to Ukrainian refugees (there is no cap set on the number of migrants from Ukraine to Canada). Last year, 130,000 Ukrainian refugees arrived in Canada by air. In 2015-2016, Canada welcomed 25,000 Syrians. Approximately 40,000 people crossed at Roxham Road in 2022. ## Confusion and devastation at Roxham RoadBefore the Safe Third Country Agreement, which was signed in 2002, shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the U.S., both countries could reject asylum seekers at official border crossings. But there was a small loophole that provided a slim window for people desperately looking for a way into Canada. People who crossed at unofficial border crossings could still claim asylum.With this new amendment, that slim window gets even smaller. Migrants can now be turned away at unofficial border crossings as well. The change took effect suddenly on Saturday, causing all kinds of confusion and trauma.But issues at play at Roxham Road are larger than any one single border crossing. They are intimately connected to global politics including economic inequities, resource extraction, imperialism, colonialism and exploitation.For many people, turning back is not an option. As Clark-Kazak said:"People will be now crossing at places that are not so visible, that are in the forest, in places that are further from an official border post. And so they'll need to know how to navigate that. So they will be turning to smugglers. We know this because this happens on the southern border between the U.S. and Mexico all the time."Even with changes to the Safe Third Country Agreement, this journey is a risk that thousands will continue to take.

The Trudeau government has finally closed the loophole allowing migrants to illegally enter Canada to seek asylum. For years, Justin Trudeau has insisted it was a complicated problem to solve, yet during Covid it seemed rather easily. Now, Canada and US have amended the Safe Third Country Agreement, meaning illegal border crossers can be turned back. Immigration lawyer Kevin Wiener joins the show to discuss.

(Mar 15, 2023) For years, people seeking asylum in Canada have been crossing the border at a tiny road in Clinton County. A new surge in migrants is straining resources in Quebec, and leading to calls for the unofficial Roxham Road border crossing to close. Also: children in New York are performing below the nationwide average in a key standard test.

The illegal border crossing at Roxham Road in southern Quebec has seen an uptick of asylum seekers in recent months, taking us close to the record levels we saw in 2017. The surge has seen some politicians call for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to close the entry point once and for all. But some feel that will only cause more problems. National Post political reporter Chris Nardi visited the area and joins the show to discuss what he saw on the ground, what local officials have to say about the issue, and what some feel is the most viable solution.

Last year, about 39,000 people entered Canada at Roxham Road, an irregular border crossing in Quebec, in search of asylum. It was a record number — and so far this year, the upward trend is continuing. The steady flow of migrants entering Canada at Roxham Road has become a political issue, but how to handle the stream of people seeking asylum at the border is an open question. On this episode, Paul Hunter, a senior correspondent with CBC News, takes us to the US-Mexico border in Juarez to see what we can learn from migrants there about the issue at America's northern border and Roxham Road.

An unofficial border crossing between Southern Quebec and New York state is at the center of a heated political debate. In December, almost 5,000 people entered Canada through Roxham Road, a stretch of road between the two countries that has seen an influx of migrants seeking to claim refugee status in Canada.Both official opposition leader Pierre Poilievre and Quebec Premier Francois Legault are calling on Ottawa to close the unofficial border. On Tuesday Prime Minister Trudeau said he's in talks with the U.S. but declined to get into specifics.The reason why people are choosing this particular route is because of a loophole in an agreement between Canada and the U.S. called the Safe Third Country Agreement. Globe and Mail columnist Konrad Yakabuski explains what this agreement is and what may happen with it.Questions? Comments? Ideas? Email us at thedecibel@globeandmail.com

If you remember the Trump years, whenever there was some hearing about Donald Trump, some accusation about Donald Trump being impeached in process against Donald Trump, Canadian media couldn't get enough of it, even though every single one of those fusses resulted in a big nothing. Do you remember that Mueller investigation for Russian influence? Who came up with nothing? There must have been hundreds of stories. I can't think of a single American left wing activists like Michael Avenatti, who is going to be the next president of the United States. He's in prison now. The Canadian media loved covering every jot and tittle, every trifle and trivial matter that was to embarrass Donald Trump. But there have been hearings in Congress this past week that, as far as I know, have not been covered anywhere in the Canadian mainstream media, although they are of great substantive gravity. The hearings are for the former executives of Twitter. These hearings are happening only because the Republicans have the majority in Congress now so they can set the agenda. And very fortuitously, because Elon Musk bought Twitter, took it private, spent 40 for billion dollars, and released some powerful secrets about what Twitter had done under the previous regime. In fact, not only did Elon Musk releases, he invited independent journalists, including many on the left, to go to Twitter headquarters, sift through hundreds or thousands of internal memos and publish their results on Twitter. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1601020109807448064 There was several tranches of these Twitter files as they been called, showing political interference, especially in the last presidential election, COVID interference, including where a Pfizer executive, Scott Gottlieb, actively interfered to stop critics of Pfizer and scientists with alternative viewpoints, including that natural immunity was powerful. One of the scariest things that was revealed in these Twitter files is the FBI merger with Twitter. It was basically used not only to capture information about people that the FBI wanted to learn about, but to shut down comments and political conversations the FBI wanted to stop. Since when was that the matter for police? But I've been saying this even before Elon Musk bought the company and revealed it. Twitter really is an information operation, a spy network where you are the product. Anyways, what news we have is that these Twitter executives under the former regime have been called to testify in Washington DC and indeed they attended. Sometimes tech leaders simply resist or refuse to attend, but they were there. Now, I have to tell you very candidly, some of these representatives ask good questions, excellent questions even, but some of them, in my view, they didn't. Now, I completely sympathize with them. But in the case of, for example, Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene, to conservative Republican congressmen, their questions of Vijaya Gadde and your wrath were more painful complaints of how they had been censored and abused. There were more howling of the injustice, and they were lawyers doing a cross examination. You'll see that. https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1623365073946173441 And you might not particularly be impressed by the questions, but you should be impressed by the fact that this is allowed to happen at all. And you might think to yourself, Why don't we ever ask such questions in Canada? https://twitter.com/therecount/status/1623419189040906240 Well, like I say, Americans are lucky that they have a Congress and a political system that's more responsive than I say. I'm flummoxed and stunned every time I consider that our third branch of, you know, there's various branches of government, there's the legislature. That's easy to understand. That's your elected lawmakers, your employees at the federal level. Your employees are employees at the provincial level. That's easy to understand. There's the executive. Those are cabinet ministers who can make decisions on everything from going to war to interest rates, things like that. Although they would claim that interest rates are independent. And then the third branch of government is the judiciary. The judges, which serve to be a check on legislators or the executive branch that gets too big for its britches, too big for the Constitution. But alas, here in Canada, our judiciary has yet to weigh in. The Supreme Court of Canada is yet to bother itself with anything regarding the lockdown or that civil liberties bonfire. Isn't that incredible? We do not have the same active checks and balances in democracy that they have in the United States, and I'm jealous. So they had these hearings and these hearings were televised and there was a congressional record. Well, I'm jealous of America for a number of reasons. One of them is, hey, can we have the Canadian version of Twitter files? Can we know about Justin Trudeau or Gerald Butts contacting Twitter to tell Twitter to throttle or ban or suspend their enemies? You doubt it happened? Obviously, all of this is happening at the other social media companies, too. It's not just the Twitter followers, You know, Facebook, YouTube, Google, Instagram and the rest of them are doing this, too. It's just we found out about it because Elon Musk bought the company, took it private, and then revealed the dirt on his own company. The third thing I'd say and you heard me talk about this the other day about our lawsuit against not against Twitter itself, but against Steven Guilbeault, the environment minister, former heritage minister for blocking rebel news and our access to the government service. I'm very excited about that lawsuit. I'm amazed at how much interest it's had nationwide. Over 100 newspapers touched on it and we are having that trial in June, which is not very far away. I'll keep you posted. In fact, I'll upload some more information to TwitterLawsuit.ca. I think we've actually got a chance. And it's not so much that really going on that source of information, that Twitter account or the Environment minister is the most important thing in the world. It's important and we have a right to it. And I am interested in what the Environment Minister has said affects me as a citizen. I have a right to it. But it's also important that the federal government knows that it simply cannot punish people based on their political differences with us, that they simply can't ban people from getting access to government services because they disagree with us or because we disagree with them. GUEST: Alexa Lavoie, our Quebec reporter on the latest from her trip down to the border crisis taking place at Roxham road, where she spoke with illegal immigrants entering Canada allegedly by the aide of US officials.

Au Québec, les autorités tentent de gérer une situation complexe à la frontière avec les États-Unis. Un petit chemin, très populaire, permet le passage de migrants qui quittent l'Amérique centrale, pour beaucoup, puis traversent les États-Unis grâce à un réseau de passeurs bien huilé, pour rejoindre le Canada, où ils demandent l'asile. En 2016, ils étaient quelques milliers mais à la fin de l'année, ils pourraient être 50 000 à y être passés en un an.

Les flux migratoires irréguliers ne se limitent pas au chemin Roxham. En marge de ce point de passage, un autre réseau de passeurs permet à des migrants de faire le chemin inverse, soit du Canada vers les États-Unis. Le journaliste Romain Schué lève le voile sur ces opérations que le gouvernement peine à contrôler.
