Canadian officials have asked New York City Mayor Eric Adams to "immediately" stop sending illegal aliens across the northern US border into Canada, just one week after reports that the National Guard has been helping distribute taxpayer-funded one-way tickets from Manhattan.
"Any form of assistance to migrants crossing the border where it is strictly forbidden to do so should stop immediately," reads a statement from the office of Quebec Premier Francois Legault. "We understand that the situation of migrants in New York poses major challenges, but the situation in Quebec and particularly in Montreal is even worse and constitutes an important humanitarian issue."
The NY Post reported last week that "thousands of new migrants" have been helped cross the US-Canada border, including some who "reported their desire to relocate to other cities, and Catholic Charities provided some assistance for their travel expenses."
The Post also reports that migrants are tearing up their American immigration documents between Plattsburgh and the Canadian border - leaving scraps of paper from the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement on the floor of a shuttle van which has the word "Frontera" (border) on the side.
