Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has announced plans to deploy the military to the Canada-US border if he comes to power. Speaking to reporters in Vancouver, the opposition leader unveiled his six-point plan to strengthen Canada’s border with the US.
Poilievre stated that Canada should regain control of its border, not just to appease President Trump but for the country’s own interests. He emphasized that the US must take concrete steps on its border, and so should Canada.
He also proposed allowing Canada Border Services agents to patrol every part of the border, not just at authorized border crossings. Poilievre added that he would fund his border plan by repealing the Liberals’ gun buy-back program and cutting red tape.
