Canada Seen as Back Door for Illegal Aliens
An Associated Press analysis notes that while Mexicans form most illegal border crossers, Canada serves as a back door for tens of thousands from Haiti, Jamaica, and others. In 1980, 92,896 undocumented entrants were stopped at the U S Canadian border, far less than the roughly 1.6 million from Mexico. Officials warn the northern route could grow, with fraudulently documented travelers, smuggling surges, and amnesty effects in Quebec.

George seeks birth relatives for a possible bone marrow transplant and says he will continue pursuing access to his birth certificate and adoption papers despite the setback.
