illegal immigration
Hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants coming to US from over 150 countries
From the Center for Immigration Studies
By Todd Bensman
CIS analyst Todd Bensman traveled August 6-18 for field research on the Colombia and Panama sides of the notorious Darien Gap immigration passageway, through which more than 1.5 million foreign nationals have reached the U.S. southern border over the past three-plus years. On this page, you can find Bensman’s video, photos and reports from his research as they publish and afterward.
Bensman’s purpose for traveling first to Colombia’s immigrant staging towns and then to Panama’s camps and impacted villages is to assess the impacts of a new Panama plan to “close” the passageway – supposedly with pledged U.S. help.
On the Colombia side of the gap, Bensman visited the towns of Turbo, Nicocli, Acandi, and Capurgana – all staging towns where trailheads lead immigrants into Panama. On the Panama side, Bensman spent time in Panama City, then traveled to the Darien Province where he visited three camps where immigrants exit or pass through in buses: Metete, Lajas Blanca, and Boco Chiquito.
Federal Election 2021
Chinese agents allegedly used illegal tactics to threaten Canadians in 2021 election, documents show
From LifeSiteNews
Justin Trudeau’s special rapporteur had downplayed the allegations, but a report showed the Royal Canadian Mounted Police was aware of foreign actor threats and interference being carried out.
A memo recently disclosed by a commission looking into foreign interference in Canada’s last two elections shows federal officials knew agents of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) were using illegal methods to threaten Canadian voters.
The information was disclosed from a memo dated August 29, 2023, from a Department of Foreign Affairs meeting, as disclosed by the Commission on Foreign Interference. The meeting acknowledging threats to Canadians via foreign state actors came only weeks after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s special rapporteur tasked with looking into the matter downplayed such interference as “media allegations.”
“The RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) is aware foreign actor threats and interference are being carried out in Canada, including the harassment of individuals or groups exercising their fundamental freedoms guaranteed in the Charter,” reads the memo, as noted by Blacklock’s Reporter.
“Combating and investigating foreign actor interference remains an operational priority for the RCMP,” it said.
According to the memo, the government claimed that it takes “its responsibility to protect Canadians from foreign interference seriously.”
The Commission on Foreign Interference is headed by Justice Marie-Josée Hogue, who had earlier said she and her lawyers will remain “impartial” and will not be influenced by politics. In January, Hogue said that she would “uncover the truth whatever it may be.”
The commission was struck after Trudeau’s special rapporteur, former Governor General David Johnston, failed in an investigation into CCP allegations last year after much delay. That inquiry was not done in public and was headed by Johnston, who is a “family friend” of Trudeau.
Johnston quit as “special rapporteur” after a public outcry following his conclusion that there should not be a public inquiry into the matter. Conservative MPs demanded Johnston be replaced over his ties to both China and the Trudeau family.
The potential meddling in Canada’s elections by agents of the CCP has many Canadians worried as well.
The news that federal executives knew that CCP agents had used illegal tactics on Canadians comes just after LifeSiteNews on Monday reported on another subject of interest involving the CCP.
As reported by LifeSiteNews, documents from a federal inquiry looking at meddling in Canada’s past two elections by foreign state actors show CCP agents allegedly worked as Elections Canada poll workers in the 2021 campaign.
As for Trudeau, he has praised China for its “basic dictatorship” and has labeled the authoritarian nation as his favorite country other than his own.
Thus far, the Commission has revealed that there were 13 electoral ridings with suspicious activity. The Commission is currently on break and will resume regular hearings in September.
