Sunday December 24, 2017, 4pm. Roxham Road, Champlain USA. It's bitterly cold and we arrive a bit late. While we wait a US border police truck pulls up and we have an amicable exchange with the officer. We may not see eye to eye but he makes no effort to deter us from coming here in future. During our wait only one asylum seeker arrives: a young Somali woman who has come all the way from a state in the midwest. A relative has helped her to get here. She is very stressed and afraid, as is everyone, and she has to face crossing into Canada on her own.
