Human Traffickers Caught Trying to Smuggle Koreans from BC to the USA
A group of 10 Koreans in the process of being smuggled into the US were caught by the RCMP in BC. It is suspected the six females of the group were unknowingly being led into lives of forced prostitution in the Western US. The individuals were offered temporary visitors' permits to allow them to stay in Canada, but they all decided to return home to Korea.
Don't be surprised to see references to news like this story and other border news brought up by American politicians who wish to have tighter border control. It seems in many ways as if Canada is in a no-win situation. When arrests are made in Canada it is pointed out that there are illegal immigrants or terrorits who wish to cross the border from Canada. When no arrests are made it is argued that Canadian security is lacking.
