We arrived at 3.20 pm today, but no one arrived until  4:00 pm and then it was non-stop! 4 taxis arrived and one unmarked van. Everyone was in their twenties except a man from Tanzania who might have been in his thirties.

At 4:00 pm:

One taxi brought 7 people: five people from  Haiti:  2 men, 2 women and a 4-year old girl and a single man from Tanzania. They all accepted mitts, hats and some scarves. There was another man who crossed the border immediately without talking with us.

A second taxi brought 9 people. There were 2 women, three men and one 10 year old boy from Haiti. As well there was a Namibian family of a man, woman and four year old girl.

The next taxi brought five Haitian people: three men and two women.

At 4.30 pm, a taxi arrived with a Spanish speaking woman and her five year old daughter and a young Haitian woman aged about 18 years.

In total 24 people crossed.  There was one creole-speaking RCMP Officer which was helpful. The officers we saw were respectful with the refugees.
