Canadian authorities are preparing for a possible surge in migrants crossing the border from the United States following Donald Trump’s recent election victory. Quebec Premier François Legault and Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet have expressed concerns about the province’s capacity to integrate new arrivals. The RCMP in Quebec has developed contingency plans to manage potential increased border crossings. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has assured that the government will protect the integrity of Canadian borders. At the same time, experts warn of the need to prepare for potentially “messy” and “dangerous” crossings as regular routes become increasingly restricted.
