New Brunswick Premier Susan Holt on Wednesday criticized the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in the U.S. that has now spread to neighbouring Maine, saying it’s making people in her province “very, very uncomfortable” to have them at the border.
Holt told reporters in Ottawa that the presence of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents at the New Brunswick-Maine border was affecting people with cross-border family and business ties that have already been struggling under strained relations due to U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs and attacks on Canada.
“We see what’s happening in the country,” she told reporters. “We see it in New Brunswick right now with ICE agents on the border of New Brunswick and Maine, in Calais. And it makes us all very, very uncomfortable.
“There’s nothing that we recognize in our neighbours right now, with the leadership that they have. We’re eager to support them in a return to the long-standing and strong partnership that Canada and the U.S. have had for generations.”
DOGE got dismantled, Kilmar Abrego Garcia returned from El Salvador, Alligator Alcatraz got closed down.
Alligator Alcatraz is alive and well I hate to tell you.
Those are some pretty weak successes for all the losses we have had.
It appears that was a bad example. I didn’t realize it reopened and is the midst of a legal battle.
Regardless I have hope. I truly thought Kilmar Abrego Garcia was gone forever. So many people thought it was over when Trump nationalized the National Guard in California. Minnesota’s resistance has also served as a beacon of hope.
I truly believe we will win. And when the dust settles we will create a new America, a better America.
Also like 4k people have gone missing from there.
Was doge dismantled or did it serve its purpose?
Also KAG is still being prosecuted and attempting to get deported to Costa Rica, and Florida received $608 million from FEMA for Alligator Alcatraz
