I think the bigger problem is the amount of people seeking "asylum" vs the people actually needing asylum. In both the US and Canada it is being used as a loophole.
Do you have any kind of source or reference that indicates this is any kind of an issue?
Is this akin to "that one guy" who fakes homelessness to scam pennies?
There's some reporting at the US border. The cartel brings you to the border and tells you what to say for a price in the thousands per person. They put you through and you tell them you are in specific personal danger if you return.
I don't know if this guy counts as a journalist, but here's a youtube documentary: https://youtu.be/buZWVQuqx0o?si=Zs03_FBV9ck6EfCX
It counts as something - it's out there, and up to the viewer to process.
Thank you.
