More Canadians, including children, detained in U.S. for immigration violations, new data show

A sweeping immigration crackdown in the United States is increasingly ensnaring Canadians who don’t have criminal records – including at least six children – new U.S. government data show.

An estimated 207 Canadians have now been held in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody at some point since January, when President Donald Trump took office. The total number of Canadians held in 2024 was 130.

OMG! Oh wait … they’re in the US illegally but in the Globe’s eye have committed no crime.
