Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the federal government is working on closing the irregular border crossing at Roxham Road — but only through renegotiating the Safe Third Country Agreement with the U.S.
, Legault said the refugee claims are pushing Quebec social services to their limits and the situation is raising humanitarian concerns.
But Trudeau dismissed any suggestion that the crossing could be closed by anything but a renegotiated Safe Third Country Agreement. Negotiations between Canada and the United States on the agreement are ongoing, Trudeau said. He did not say when the two sides are expected to wrap up the talks but said the government is "making real progress."
"It's not fair or right that one community or one province ought to bear the brunt of a challenge that we're facing as a result of Canada abiding by its domestic and legal obligations."
