Illegal immigration concerns

There are worries that the winter numbers of illegal immigrants could turn into a spring flood.

The Trudeau liberals plan on in-depth discussions this week on how to handle the pressures from the rising number of illegal aliens sneaking into Canada from the U.S.

Cabinet will mull over giving the Immigration and Refugee board more resources; at the taxpayer’s expense.

The Opposition Conservatives are among those demanding a crackdown on illegal immigration.

Oromocto rescue

A New Brunswick fire chief says three people are lucky to be alive following a dramatic water rescue.

Jody Price of the Oromocto fire department says crews were called to Wilsey Road at around 1:30 Friday morning after a vehicle landed upside down in a ditch full of water.

Two people managed to get out of the vehicle, but firefighters had to rescue one person and two dogs trapped inside.

All three people were taken to hospital, and firefighters took the dogs to their home.
