The number of individuals seeking asylum in Canada since U.S. President Donald Trump took office has fallen, according to government data.

The RCMP previously warned of the possibility of an influx of refugees from the United States following Trump’s election win in November 2024, saying it was preparing to put extra resources at borders.
