Arrests and detentions of Canadians in the U.S. rose 60% last year
Arrests and detentions of Canadians in the United States spiked last year, a report shows, The Globe and Mail reported, and Le Devoir put the rise at 60%. The figures come from the federal government's annual consular data report.
More Canadians are in U.S. custody than before.
If you travel to the U.S., carry the right documents and know the consular contact number.
Look for whether the figures include immigration detentions.
