Irregular border crossing at Roxham Road no easy fix

About this episode

The illegal border crossing at Roxham Road in southern Quebec has seen an uptick of asylum seekers in recent months, taking us close to the record levels we saw in 2017. The surge has seen some politicians call for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to close the entry point once and for all. But some feel that will only cause more problems. National Post political reporter Chris Nardi visited the area and joins the show to discuss what he saw on the ground, what local officials have to say about the issue, and what some feel is the most viable solution.
