"Canada Reinstates Visa Requirements for Mexicans Amid Surging Asylum Claims"

Canada has reinstated visa requirements for Mexican nationals due to a surge in asylum claims, with more than half of the applications being abandoned or rejected. The influx of immigrants has strained the government of Quebec, leading to a record high of asylum claims from Mexico. The move comes after pressure from Quebec, which has seen a significant increase in asylum seekers, and follows a border deal between Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and US President Joe Biden to close a loophole allowing asylum seekers to enter at unofficial points on the Canada-US border.
