Quebec’s Minister of Immigration, Christine Frechette, announced that the Government of Canada had transported nearly all asylum seekers arriving in Canada through the Roxham Road to other provinces. As a result, the majority of 380 migrants who arrived in Quebec by that route – 373 – have been relocated, mainly to Ontario. Since last summer, the Federal Government has continuously transferred migrants from Roxham Road due to capacity issues in Quebec. Thus, over 5300 people have been moved from Quebec since June 2022, including 500 to Windsor and nearly 2700 individuals to Niagara Falls in Ontario.
