Canada’s response to Trump deportation plan a key focus of revived cabinet committee

OTTAWA — U.S. president-elect Donald Trump’s promise to launch a mass deportation of millions of undocumented people has the Canadian government looking at its own border.

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland says the issue is one of two “points of focus” for a recently revived cabinet committee to handle Canada-U.S. relations.

Freeland says she has also been speaking to premiers about the issue this week.

She adds that the committee has a plan, but did not share details.
