The civilian-led border watch group known as the Minuteman Project plans to expand its membership into Canada, MSNBC.com has learned.
The American-Canadian Conservative Coalition (AC3) has agreed to recruit and field Canadian volunteers who will join with the U.S.-based Minutemen to hold simultaneous cross-border vigils along the Michigan-Ontario border sometime this summer.
The joint project will be called Michigan-Ontario Minuteman Border Neighborhood Watch, according to a Minuteman Project spokesperson.
The Minuteman Project came to prominence in April when the group fielded about 900 volunteers to patrol a 23-mile stretch of the Arizona-Mexico border.

When is it coming here to Washington State?
I hope they bring some tv so they can watch hockey. Oh, don't forget the beer. You can't watch hockey without beer.
Damned racists!
Now these out of control radical wingnuts will be targetting Undocumented Caucasians & freaks toting bloody chain saws. Does this madness never end?
Show some compassion! They're only coming to America to take what Americans haven't nailed down.
I suppose if the guys want to come up here and soak a worm, drink beer and swat mosquitoes, they're welcome.
I really think, though, that their services would be better used along the Mexican borders. We've got it pretty well covered up here. Any groups of Moslems or Mexicans moving through the cedar swamps will be noticed, if they can find their way through without getting lost or eaten by the wolf packs.
