Is Immigration Detention A Human Rights Issue - 6CR #182

In Mar 2023, the influx of illegal boarder crossings into Quebec via Roxham Road caused national attention, ultimately leading to the closure of Roxham Road. Darnell & Joel use this issue as a starting point for a larger conversation regarding legal immigration & illegal immigration.

• Human rights & the detention of migrants
• Why do Asylum seekers leave the US for Canada? 
• Should Ottawa intervene in redirecting asylum seekers to other provinces?
• Should Canada have an open border or closed border policy?
