Liberal government introduces Bill C-2 to make the border more secure

New Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree has tabled a bill in the House of Commons that spells out Ottawa's next steps on border security.He says the legislation would give authorities new powers to
search mail and allow officials to pause or cancel immigration applications more easily.  

It would also expand the Canadian Coast Guard's role to include security activities. It's all part of Canada's effort to persuade U-S President Donald Trump that Canada is doing enough to stem the southbound flow of drugs and migrants.

Trump blamed fentanyl and irregular migration to justify tariffs on Canadian imports.
