This editorial was not honest in describing the increase in  migrants  crossing illegally at the Quebec border, giving the impression that these crossings increased only in response to Trump.

"In Quebec, the number of people crossing the border illegally has also increased exponentially. From April 2014 to March 2015, 166 people were caught crossing the border illegally. By the next year, that number had almost doubled to 315. But in the eight months that followed — to Nov. 30, 2016 — another 823 had crossed illegally, the CBSA said."

In other words,  the number of people crossing the border illegally was already doubling per year March 2015 to March 2016, then doubled again from March 2016 to Nov 2016, even before Trump won the election.
