Public Safety committee At the land border it's U.S. Customs and Border Protection, through a reciprocal exchange under this provision. That's how it would be regulated. Under proposed section 93, that gives the agency the authority to prescribe or to compel airlines and air carriers to submit outbound

It would open an investigation—by a human—to verify continued eligibility for those types of programs. The CBSA has a recourse program as well as an online complaint mechanism. When people have a com

Andrew Lawrence
Public Safety committee The information is submitted to CBSA upon entry to the U.S. In those cases where individuals are refused entry, they are sent back to a meeting with a border services officer at a land border, for instance. We process their return.
