Um they all crossed the border illegally. Thats literally a crime right there. How is the news so brain dead? No wonder people don’t listen to news anymore. If you cross the border of a sovereign country not at a port of entry and you don’t obtain a visa or any other permission to stay in the country long term you are committing a crime. Like how hard is that for the news to understand.

I am a Canadian. Moved to Houston and lived there for eight years....there is nothing pleasant about living in the United States. Sorry but you guys fail even the basic courtesies of life. Was relieved to get back to Canada and get rid of my sidearms! Hospitals and clinics in the U.S. want proof of insurance or they can refuse to even look at you! In Canada no clinic or hospital can turn you away....and we have the Good Samartan law here...meaning you can't be sued for helping someone in an emegency. I actually knew a person in Houston who made her living suing people and companies just because it was easy money....try that here...lmao. To sum it up....living in Canada has the most appeal for me. Now, 2025, I would not even cross the border...too dangerous...trump tards everywhere and who knows when you will be on thier target list.

Thousand of Indian nationals are waiting Mexico border to cross. Indian foreign policy is damaging its own citizens fate. Modi govt only has good relations with Russia, Indian people can freely go to Moscow and join the war. Modi making India great

Does this host watched tv shows such as “nothing to declare” and “danger Tv”? Many people think that because they think that they are cleaver enough to circumvent visa interviews, falsify documents required to impress foreign embassy staff, get visa on false pretenses because they have money, connections in domestic government or someone overseas to curry favor them, then no wonder your visa application would be rejected and fees forfeited or you would be turned down entry to your dream country on arrival and deported back to your home country. People even dare to charter a flight to Maxico with a plan to cross the border and into USA, like a flash mob, without a visa. Well you don’t have entitlement for that, just like you don’t like Bangladeshi, Pakistani and Rohingya crossing your borders by any means.\nHow many Indian agents have befooled fellow Indians who want to go and work in UAE, Behrin, Muscat, Qatar, Oman, Jordan and Saudi Arabia but landed on one of the beaches of India or have their Passport taken away to make them work like a slave in servitude by their fellow Indian contractors? Let us talk about that.\nLet us talk about how many Indian parents and students so foolish to see admission in universities or unaccredited fake colleges in Canada, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Ukraine, Poland, Hungary, Russia and Russian federation countries but no serious intention to study but intention not to return but figure out magic trick to PR and citizenship without really caring to understand how immigration works and what would actually qualify to deserve immigration visa? Sham marriages is one of many tricks that people pursue despite knowing that chances of success are really very remote. Let us talk about that.\n\nLet us talk about fake colleges that “donations” to admit “students” who failed to perform because their parents have money to justify entitlement to buy degrees and fake colleges print it out in return to “donations”?\n\nIt doesn’t end here. You get to these destinations by hook or crook, you eventually get busted, yet you have nerves to be cocky, pretend to be robbed, discriminated, cheated, victimized instead and gather nerve to seek PR, green card, white card as compensation and even a job? I mean how far you would go thinking world is stupid and you can prove it.\n\nSORRY, there are hard working, intelligent and qualified Indians that get visa and there are people who get visa on family migration quota for example but many others, give me a break.

Simplify cross-border travel and Visas but introduce stricter penalties for default - like immediate blacklisting of passports. That will deter the people who want to unlawfully migrate and let others like us enjoy travel and moving around the globe freely

It's time people stopped crossing borders. It's causing uneasiness across the globe especially by Hindians and Mueslis. It's causing upheavals in society in the intended destinations. Hope those people already there will be deported or asked to go back soon. There's only so much a country can accept as visitors or migrants due to lack of resources in the host country. If they are there for welfare, please leave

If we, the United States, know how many Indians are crossing the Canadian border into the U.S. side, that must mean WE are letting them in. Why the heck not return them to Canada right there and then? They are surely not being persecuted in Canada, so why allow them in? And the same goes for all the undocumented people crossing over from Mexico. By making it so easy and allowing all illegals into the country, the United States is really at fault for the mess that it is in.

I met many young people from Haryana, Gujarat and Punjab who paid 40-60 lacs to agents for crossing mexican boarder to the USA. The agents have good rapport with the drug cartel in Mexico, and they make it possible to cross the border safely. It's a huge Mafia

This is wrong allegation of political issues. There is no such issues.Punjab and Gujrat infact one of the richest province in India. Only people who are less educated and greedy leaving for these countries. Because of their neighbour or relatives moved to US n Canada in 70' 80s and they want to move by hook or crook. Infact you will hardly find any homelessness people in this province. Last yr a Man from Gujrat died with wife and 2 young children while illegally crossing border crossing. He was doing good financially.

We shouldve had the same immigration laws as America. We share one of the largest borders in the world. It makes sense that if Canada doesnt want people in america crossing that america doesnt want those in Canada crossing. Why would we have two incredibly different immigration laws? Laws far too lenient that its not only hurt canada, but now America.

How in the hell has corrupt mexico helped out alot with immigrants at the border other than having their federal soldiers pointing their rifles at immigrants to cross the border is she is corrupt then the people there need to remove her or the U.S. will since other countries want to get in in our nations political affairs it seems fair right.

Are reporters stupid? of course its low now after Trump got elected. Of curse its goin to be low now because BIDEN AND KAMALA were inviting illegals to come and cross the border. are you stupid of what. people are not going to risk the little what they have so they can be deported. but if you offer them housing, free healthcare, money, free child support and free food like BIDEN/KAMALA you will see the number go up again. Are you that stupid really?

Funny how you report on the lowest border crossing under Biden but kept you reporting quiet when The Fascist Felon Elect ran his hateful fear campaign on the so called migrant invasion of how he had two border bills killed so he can run on a problem. Mainstream Media Failed the American people thank good I got the facts from independent Media from the Mideas Touch Network

That remain in Mexico will not last forever, Mexico knows that its a farce, the U.S dont care about those people. and by the way, there's thousands of migrants working and living in Mexico, remaining in Mexico, very few if any will be allowed in anyway, the border is all screw up and there is to much anti-migration racism and lies about migrant's, and few Mexicans are crossing the border illegally, not even migrating, in Mexico's case, migration is in reverse and American are invading Mexico to live a better economic life, many especially in Mexican border cities live in Mexico illegally, best hope they dont start massive deportation's (becouse the U.S. only thinks they have homeless now) Thank God for Mexico

Hold on so now that we have people coming in that are going to be strict on border security and crossings are down. They reference the Biden administration and their failure to stem the tide for years and we should be happy with Biden and his yahoos?\nMake this make sense

Do anyone knows the reason why Mexico allows millions of illegal people to enter and travel across the country to enter the US and the government never stop those people? Let's say that Haiti has border with the US and the U S allow millions of Haitians to cross the country in their way to the Mexican border and the US doesn't try to stop them . I don't think Mexico will like that. Am I missing anything?.

Border crossings are already down to almost nothing? Gee I wonder why. Trump isn't even in office and people have stopped trying to get in.

I mean if items go up in price that come from other countries and chemicals will be gone out of food the food price will cost the same cause they’ll get rid of the spending on other chemicals I mean it will help tightening border cross from South and north so that will help a lot of people coming here cause everything might get more expensive people with out papers will want to leave ?

“The US needs Mexico”, okay LMAO. You are taking the words of a corrupt government official controlled wholly by the cartel at face value. If we did not cooperate with Mexico, why would there be any concern as to why the southern border would weaken? The government has no control over these people illegally entering our country?! During the Biden administration, sure, you can say there was cooperation with our neighbor to the south. What did that do? Record illegal crossings. Trump opposers are idiots, and that’s what YOU are. ANYONE but Trump you say, well you are about to see what happens when someone puts their foot down and saying it’s US vs THEM. We have no friends and we have no enemies in the global economy. We do what’s best for America?! That is something we can most certainly agree on, no???

Tell Maxico to investigate who buys their human trafficking that sent people to us. If it's the organization in US then send them all to prison.\n\nIt sad that Maxico will suffer but they need to respect us, I mean how they can they allow those immigrants to cross in? Did they get paid to send those people in or they bluntly disrespected us? Where is their border patrol, are they capable of control in their border? If they cannot theb I think Trump should exercise compassion and understanding their situation.

More fake cnn news. Nobody coming across border. There must be a lot of people wanting to hear lies or they just talking and nobody listening. As for Mexico, they will stop the border crossings just like they did last time.

Amazing how many people around the world speak evil about Capitalist USA but given the chance of open borders they will ran towards it . Unfortunately there is no nation in the world can handle everyone , this will be coming to an end in January. These politicians oblivious to the needs of their own citizens, pretend to care for anyone and everyone crossing .

Oh god, they all should be immediately provided with food, medicine , water, better ship and sent back home or to the jail , as to cross border illigaly is a crime . Or something has changed? Why then i need passport to fly to Germany and those people not ?

Be careful with the Illegals crossing the Border that say they are Mexicans, because they are not!. Real Mexicans are not crossing hardly anymore. However those Central and Southamericans who say they are from México, are those who in case of being Deported, Mexico will be the Place. Why? To try to cross the Border again. México is packed of those illegals all around México. They try to to full the Mexican people and Authorities that they are Mexicans, since looks are similar to the people of Mexico, but the way they talk (their accent) will not full nobody in México, only the U.S. Border Patrol or Emmigration Agents will believe them.

I am from Poland and I understand perfectly well the need to protect the borders and to deport people who have ILLEGALLY entered the country.\nThe only places to cross the country's borders should be border crossing points and airports. With the right set of documents to legalise your stay.\nNo exceptions.

Europeans crack me up. 1. Crossing the American border illegally IS A CRIME !! 2. Ask any fly on an elephant carcass how he plans to eat an entire elephant. One bite at a time. One illegal at a time. 11 million people in your country is not an inconvenience, it's an invasion.

There's a piece missing in the puzzle. Has anyone asked where's Mexico in all of this? everyone seems to forget that they're America's southern neighbor, and they're not helping with anything to mitigate the border crisis. Mexico has to be sanctioned, because they're not actively partaking in the protection of the shared border with the US, they're allowing immigrants to cross the border unchecked, sparing themselves the trouble of dealing with them. They're throwing the ball in America's court, making immigration America's problem. Since they share the border with America, they have an obligation to combat illegal immigrantion but they're not doing that. They want to get rid of their crimnals and the poverty in their country not by enforcing the law and trying to invest in their infrastructure to enhance the living standards of their people, instead they're encouraging them to move to America to find a better life. America doesn't have to pay the price of Mexico being a failed country. They're turning their backs on their own citizens and trying to get rid of them, obliging them to take the perilous journey across the border where they're prone to crime, drugs, rape, human trafficking, sex trafficking, child abuse and all sorts of tragedies but to them the ends justify the means, and they have the nerves to call America racist and inhumane for not rescuing them from the situation that they created for them in the first place. Since the vast majority of illegal immigrants came across the border with Mexico, they should be deported back to Mexico, and Mexico can take it from there, not our problem anymore

The fact that we have so many people in the US undocumented and living here for decades tells us that our legal process is not sufficient for allowing people to come legally. Having that many people tells us we need to treat this as a policy problem, not an individual-making-bad-choices problem. And spending billions of dollars on border patrol tactics that still allow for so many illegap immigrants tell us that our resources are grossly misspent. Plus we treat legal asylum seekers as if they were illegal (depriving people of food, keeping them from crossing in the first place) so people will choose whatever method will get them here. People can be here legally for well over a decade before getting a green card and then even longer to get citizenship.

CNN as usual trying to lie!!! We’re all this numbers coming from??? What is the problem to deport all this people??? If Biden - Harris administration managed to bring 20 million people for 3 years, why Trump can’t do the same opposite??? We do not need detention centers!!! We need to speed up the process!!! Bring them to the border and let them cross back to we’re they came from!!! No bus, no train, no plane!!!

Lady first of all, MAGA wants the country back from people like you, you are a tool to help them further their agenda. Second, racists and stupid people like this woman ignore the fact that the US has its hand in the conditions then make people flee their homes from climate to CIA assassinations. Third, racist and stupid people like this woman ignore the fact that if businesses were held accountable for employing undocumented workers, border crossings would stop tomorrow. Stop vilifying poor people and hold businesses and government accountable.

Here are some options.\n1) put a complete ban on immigrations from Mexico for the next 10 years\n2) give work permits for people already here.\n3) remove the million or so already denied entry\n4) offer free rent for 10 years to those who volunteer to return to countries the came from. That would have to be limited.\n5) stop soros and ngo from paying people from crossing the border

We in Canada must never allow illegal people of any kind or situation to enter Canada.Those who attempt to cross our borders must be sent back to where they came from if they do not meet the legal requirements to enter.If that means engaging our military to enforce the laws then that is what should used.People who break laws are not welcome and should under absolutely no circumstances be allowed to set foot into Canada,period!!.

Why would anyone think Trump cares about ripping families apart? He ripped his first two families apart by cheating on Ivana and then dumped Marla and Tiffany. Ya think that did not rip his own two families apart? \nWhy would anyone think Trump has any intention of deporting people legally? Surely he could find enough armed Proud Boys etc., have them grab people off the streets, shove them on helicopters that could briefly cross the border at night and force the people off at gunpoint. Or load them onto small boats, get close to shore in Baja, and force the people at gunpoint to swim to the beach?\nGetting SCOTUS to deny immigrants/migrants due process should be a cinch with the current group of injustices that granted him immunity for criminal acts.

These people are crazy. We have a economic crisis in Canada right now we need to deport our illegal immigrants why would we take on people who didn’t immigrate properly in the first place there not victim they over stayed there visas or illegally crossed the border

And who is going to pay for that ???? You really think prices going to go down after that? And border crossing were higher at the end of Trump first term not lower .....wake the hell up people

Border patrol think the actual illegal border crossing is about 20 MILLION. That's with the apprehensions, known got aways and unknown got aways. So YES MILLIONS WILL BE DEPARTED. Now if yiu haters wanna believe that all 20 MILLION are just good people wanting better lives, that's on your hateful stupidity.

I DON'T BELIEVE THIS PEOPLE CROSSING THE BORDER WITH CHILDREN THEY COME TO USA AND WE GOT TO TAKE CARE OF THEM

Canada probably the only country who give citizenship to people/Thugs/criminals crossing border illegally and give them permanent residence. Adding these to the so called terrorist Khalistan psychopaths. Who bombed indian airlines killed hundreds of people. Even now openly threatening to blow up indian airlines. For canada this is freedom of speach. If any other country threatens Canada with same will these make them happy perhaps

Still does not address the elegals that cross or borders this is just the people coming legaly but if Trump wins what's are strategy going to be for them.

Trump doesn’t see the difference between a Mexican-American who is fifth generation and the guy who crossed the border today. He hates non-white people. This lady is a dummy.

my tia who crossed the border illegally decades ago is now a trump supporter and her argument is that people like her deserved to be here but the people coming over now don’t. Idk how she managed to do statistical analysis on the moral character of the people crossing lol but go off

Within India, there is immigration from north to South. And, you don't need any passport or Visa to immigrate within the states of India. Bangalore, an important city in South India s Karnataka State is brimming with people from the North. The Kannadigas become the minority in their own state. The population of Tamils in the state of Tamilnadu is shrinking. In another 50 years north Indians will dominate South India. So, all over the world , the adverse side effects of immigration are felt. People from overpopulated regions have been migrating to less populated are for resources, from Europe to America, and now Asia to Europe and north America. There was, is, and will be murmurs, hiccups and clashes leading to violence. Animals resist their own species, crossing their borders, so are men. This is the bitter truth, take it with a pinch of salt.

I have been living in Turkey, in Ankara there are plenty of embassies. Why none of these people asks for visa or support through papers? If they have thousands to get smuggled they might have some credits to try the legal way. As European I agree is not optimal the behavior of Greek forces, but given the sheer amount of people forcing their way in I don't see how any different practical approach could improve the situation for EU. There is also a wide spectrum of people border crossing into EU, also many get rid of their passports as they cross in order not to get identified. I believe emigration is a human right, but laws of the receiving country are to be followed, and nations deserve to decide who has the right to live in their territory. To conclude, It's a complicated situation and I'd just wish anyone could live in peace and prosperity

imagine coming to a country paying high amount of college tution fees (as the international students pay higher amounts than local ones) as well rising costs of house prices,taxes only to be cheated with a illusion of dreams. I wouldnt blame the indians alone though i dont support the border crossing. the government who allowed even small institutions to exploit the students are to blame when they took their money and then blame evrything on them. you are forgetting these people came to Canada legally and the goverment and the locals have benefitted and now you blame them. why?

We all wanna look at the border below. We have no border above. It's essentially just a forest with a clearing so they can spot people crossing. Many do cross. We say nothing about it.. Remember that explosion at the border.. what was it.. last year? Not normal.

EDIT: UPDATE. And then there is this....\n\nRamanpreet Singh, a 25-year-old man from Brampton is charged with: \n \nPossession of Property Obtained by Crime (3 counts) \nFlight from Peace Officer \nDangerous Operation (Of a motor vehicle)\n(This is lenient. The charge should rightfully be Reckless Endangerment of a Police Officer) \nObstruct Peace Officer (In an arrest) \nPotentially damaging a Canadian Landmark and/or Treasure (Tim Hortons) - I added this. Life sentence.\n\n\nBut you guys are nothing if not entertaining so enjoy for yourselves: \n\nhttps://youtu.be/NgrutzeSuI0?si=DaW5iBWweG3SsawX\n\nStill not embarrased? Haven't whet your appetite for whole-heartedly becoming Canadians?\n\nBut wait, there's more....\n\n\nOriginal post:\n\nFirst, well done. That must have been hard. Now, you are beginning to see. What you are doing is necessary.\n\nTruth is often harsh. Yes the Canadian government were ill prepared for the ramifications of their decisions. But they do not owe you anything. You have also neglected to mention small details. Details which I presume, must seem normal to you from life in India: \n\nDetails like, as a peaceful nation that embraced multiculturalism, Canada has never in recent memory had an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) shatter the peace of how we choose to live. The events in Mississauga's Bombay Bhel restaurant in 2018. That is UNACCEPTABLE. Assimilate to our culture and peaceful norms or get out. \n\nDetails like, being a nation that pays heavy taxes we value transparency in our political leaders. So no matter how we feel about our Prime Minister, when Justin Trudeau calls out the Indian government in assissination of one of their own people on sovereign Canadian soil, we tend to believe him. That is UNACCEPTABLE. Stand up, grow a spine, accept and be accountable or get out.\n\nDetails like, protesting the reduction in international student quotas and demanding extensions of the PGWP post graduate work permits. Protesting government decisions is the right of Canadians only. As visitors you simply do not have the right. That is UNACCEPTABLE. Comply or get out.\n\nDetails like, public display of fighting in the streets. Gatherings in large numbers at private homes and venues. Further defecaton at gas stations. The carrying of swords (not ceremonial kirpans or daggers - less than 12 inches long) to these protests. That is UNACCEPTABLE. Do it and we will put you out.\n\nDetails like, illegally crossing into the United States. Our long-time allies and friends to the South. Crossing in such large numbers as to exceed migration levels at their Southern border from Mexico. Making our political counterparts in the United States doubt our ability to govern our own country and mitigate threats from terrorists. This too, is UNACCEPTABLE. \n\nThese hostile, desperate and oppurtunistic ways are not how we choose to live in Canada. We are hard working and given an honest job, which some of you now occupy, do an honest days work. We have a long history of peace but also a reputation for upholding it. Tread lightly and learn if you value this country as your home.

Govt should takem extremely strict measures to rackle this, either US or Canada if fpund people crossing borders, they should be put in jail for life, these people are degrading name of Indian people. Currently in the US Indian Americans are known for their intelligence and high IQ, but things like this put tje community name in mud, the laws for this kind of activity should be, jailed without parole, then people will atip doing shit.

All these people (Desperate Punjabis and Gujaratis ) who are crossing from Canada to US via the US Canada border and seeking Asylum will be deported as soon as possible back to canada under the safe country agreement between US and Canada. They will never be able to apply asylum in US once they are deported from US to canada. Least they will have an option to file asylum in canada will obviously wont give them any fruits given the houseful condition. ?‍??

I find it troubling to see why some Indians feel compelled to migrate illegally. It's disheartening to witness women and children risking their lives by crossing the Canada-US border in such a manner. This situation not only brings shame but also highlights the desperate circumstances that lead people to take such dangerous actions.

Too many different countries people crossing borders why say Indian why headline only India ??
