Texas Offers Ranch to Trump for Mass Deportation Facility

United States

#deport

#policy

Texas officials have offered a 1,400-acre ranch near the border to support Donald Trump’s mass deportation plan. Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham proposed using the ranch for processing and deporting immigrants, particularly violent offenders.

Trump’s plan targets up to 20 million people, far exceeding those with criminal records. Critics worry it will sweep up families and long-term residents lacking proper documentation.

Texas has spent $11 billion on border security since 2021 and leads efforts to secure the border. Meanwhile, Democratic cities prepare to protect immigrant communities, fearing overreach. Experts argue Trump’s approach may shift focus from border arrivals to established undocumented immigrants.

Starting January 6, 2025, service hours at 35 land ports of entry across the Canada-US border will be revised. This change will affect provinces like Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Quebec, Saskatchewan, and New Brunswick.

New timings aim to enhance security and optimize resource use. Adjustments are based on operational needs and peak traffic analysis. Both countries will align hours to manage cross-border enforcement effectively.

The changes may impact flagpole services and frequent travelers. As both sides coordinate, inadmissibility procedures will also improve. Commercial timings and further details are available on the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) website.

#reforms

Japan plans to license 24,500 foreign drivers by 2028 to address labor shortages in transportation. The government expanded the "specified skilled worker" visa to include transportation services, allowing foreigners to secure medium- and long-term visas.

Efforts include translating Class 2 driver's license exams into multiple languages and helping companies like Kyoto’s Matsushima Mobility Service hire foreign drivers.

With an aging population and low fertility rates, Japan aims to double its foreign workforce over five years. Recent laws offer skill training, job flexibility, and pathways to permanent residency. Vietnamese nationals form the largest foreign worker group, reflecting Japan’s increasing reliance on immigration.

Canada

#entry

Canada has ended the automatic issuance of 10-year multiple-entry visas for Nigerians and other foreign nationals. Immigration officers will now decide between single or multiple-entry visas and set their validity periods.

The change aims to address a post-COVID population surge. The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) clarified that such visas are no longer the “standard document.”

Additionally, Canada has reduced its permanent resident target for 2025 from 500,000 to 395,000. These adjustments reflect the government’s efforts to manage immigration levels effectively.
