The Roxham Road irregular border crossing near Hemmingford, Quebec is going to be shut down at midnight tonight. The announcement comes on the heels of U.S. President Joe Biden’s first state visit to Canada. It’s welcome news for Quebec, with Premier François Legault praises his government ministers for their efforts to stop irregular immigrants from walking into Quebec but people who work with refugees and migrants say it will just cause more distress.
