Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre calls for increased border security - December 1, 2024

At a news conference in Ottawa, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre presents his party's proposal to increase Canada's border security in the wake of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s threat to impose a 25 per cent on all imports from Canada if certain border issues aren’t addressed. The plan includes increasing border patrols, cracking down on illegal narcotic manufacturing and shipping, and expanding the mandate of CBSA officers to allow them to enforce the law beyond border posts.
