Canada also detains migrant children, sometimes for months at a time

The U.S. is the focus of international outrage for its policy of separating children from their parents and detaining them after they cross the border in search of asylum.

But Canada also detains migrant children — and in some cases, restricts access to their asylum-seeking parents — despite the fact its stated policy is to do whatever possible to avoid it.

Last year, 151 minors were detained with their parents in Canadian immigration holding centres.

Eleven others were held in custody unaccompanied by an adult, according to the Canada Border Services Agency.

That CBC article was a good idea. Even on trade, Canada needs the U.S.A. to start manufacturing again now more than ever. The two nations are economically interdependent, and one cannot fall without the other.

We also need Mexico. Please don’t confuse the need for legality with the need for a neighbor. I am for legal processes. And I am for Mexico. (Not the left, or gang elements.)
