Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to finalize a landmark deal with President Joe Biden in Ottawa on Friday, which would close a loophole in the Safe Third Country Agreement and see Canada accept thousands more Central American migrants through legal pathways.
Government sources cautioned that while the two countries are on track to finalize the deal during Mr. Biden’s trip to Ottawa, the fine print is still being hammered out and confirmation will only come on Friday. The sources spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the private deliberations.
