Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene accused Canada of wanting “to participate in Mexico’s invasion” of the U.S. via the northern border during a Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability Tuesday.
Greene expressed concern with Canada’s visa waivers for Mexican nationals traveling to their country. The northern border is currently seeing an uptick in illegal immigration, with Border Patrol agents in the Swanton sector in Vermont, New York and New Hampshire recently recording an 846% increase in apprehensions.
WATCH:
“I’d also like to point out that it’s extremely concerning and dangerous to the United States of America’s national security that Canada’s immigration policy allows Mexicans to travel to Canada without a visa. It seems that Canada wants to participate in Mexico’s invasion of the United States,” Greene said.
She continued, “Because many of these Mexicans are obtaining an electronic travel authorization to travel into Canada and they get that approved within minutes and then they end up coming into the United States.”
In an effort to address illegal immigration, President Joe Biden and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently brokered a new “Safe Third Country” agreement to expel some illegal migrants who claim asylum after already passing through Canada or the U.S.
The Canadian government didn’t respond to a request for comment.

Throughout the great scheme of things you receive an A for hard work. Where you lost us ended up being in all the specifics. As they say, details make or break the argument.. And it could not be much more true right here. Having said that, let me say to you precisely what did do the job. The writing is definitely highly persuasive which is most likely why I am taking the effort in order to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, although I can notice a leaps in logic you make, I am not really certain of just how you appear to unite your points which inturn make your conclusion. For now I will yield to your issue however hope in the near future you connect your dots better.
