Newly published federal data shows a total of 1,634 irregular migrants were apprehended by RCMP between official border crossings last month. That’s 371 more than the number of people who crossed irregularly into Canada in June.

CTV News – Feds Intervene to Get 13-Year-Old B.C. Ball Player to Little League World Series
Dio Gama’s team, the Whalley Major Allstars from Surrey, B.C., had thought they would be without the young outfielder after a federal judge ordered a review of the family’s immigration case last month. There were fears Gama would be blocked from re-entering Canada if he travelled to the U.S. for the tournament without status in Canada.
