President-elect Donald Trump is doubling down on his anti-immigrant rhetoric, continuing to promise to carry out the largest mass deportation operation in "American history." Just this week, Trump confirmed he plans to use military assets to deport migrants. But as these proposals become more concrete, U.S.'s northern neighbor, Canada, fears the new measures will have a ripple effect in its own immigration.
Canadian officials are drawing up plans to add patrols, buy new vehicles and set up emergency reception facilities at the border between New York State and the province Quebec to prepare for what they expect to be a surge in migrants thanks to Trump's crackdown on American migration, The New York Times reports.
