Border officers patrol near the Canada–U.S. boundary in British Columbia.
Canadian and American border officials say close cooperation between the two countries led to the swift arrest of several individuals attempting to cross the border illegally over the weekend.
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) confirmed that intelligence sharing with U.S. Customs and Border Protection helped intercept a group near the border between British Columbia and Washington State. Authorities said the arrests took place after both agencies coordinated surveillance efforts in the area.
While officials did not release further details about the individuals detained, the CBSA said the incident highlights ongoing joint efforts to address irregular crossings and cross-border crime. The agency added that collaboration with American counterparts remains central to maintaining border safety while ensuring lawful travel and trade.
The federal government has faced growing calls to strengthen border security and streamline cooperation with the United States as migration pressures increase along certain rural crossings.
