According to Border Patrol agents in Minnesota, so far in 2023 they have seen as many illegal crossing attempts as there were in all of 2021.

They are patrolling a majority of the border; Minnesota shares a 547 miles border with Canada, plus an open shoreline on Lake Superior.

Minnesota’s border with Canada may be beautiful to visit, but it can be a difficult place to patrol.
