The federal government unveiled a new blueprint to strengthen border security on Friday. Prime Minister Mark Carney outlined the plan from a crossing in Ontario’s Niagara region. The federal budget will allocate funding to hire an additional 1,000 border services officers to crack down on the illegal trade of stolen goods, guns, and drugs. Mackenzie Gray looks at the Liberals’ plan and the motivation behind it.
