The New York City government has decided to change its strategy to solve the migrant crisis that now crosses its streets. Where before state Democrats blamed southern Republicans for trucking foreigners across the Mexican border, they are now trucking them across the northern border into Canada.

As reported by the newspaper The New York Times, New York City authorities are ‘relocating’ migrants because the city hasn’t helped more than 42,000 people who arrived seeking asylum.

Today, Mayor Eric Adams is replicating the strategies he criticized Texas government. As US media reports, the city that never sleeps has for months been buying tickets for migrants who want to travel to other cities to connect with family or friends, especially Canada.

In trucks funded by the city government, migrants are taken roxham road, a town in Clinton County that borders its neighbor to the north. From there, migrants can seek refuge in Canada and immediately benefit from health coverage, social assistance and a work permit.

While Canada has encouraged immigration in the face of labor shortages, it has also taken steps to harden its borders in order to stop illegal crossings. The North American country has been pushing to bring the entire border between the United States and Canada under the Safe Third Country Agreement, a treaty between the two nations that came into effect in 2004.

Besides the increase in migrants at the border with the United States began to trigger an alert within the government of Justin Trudeau.

According to the New York Times, in December alone, 4 thousand 689 people entered Canada via Roxham Road. More than all the “irregular border crossings” combined in 2021.

According to Canadian media, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has confirmed that his government’s goal is to “reduce these irregular crossings and promote legal migration”.

After the investigation was published, the mayor of New York made an appearance on CNN, where he denied the accusations and assured that they were “inaccurate”.
