Brazen Canadian ‘coyotes’ smuggling migrants across the northern border — even advertising on TikTok
NY Post ^ | 2/15/25 | Gabrielle Fahmy

Smugglers are brazenly using TikTok to advertise their human-trafficking services across the Canada-US border — undercutting the Great White North’s position as it tries to hammer out a critical deal with the US on tariffs and security, The Post has learned.

For close to a year, the Canadian “coyotes” — who largely target Indian nationals — promise a hassle-free trip to the States for as much as $5,000, with new border-crossing accounts popping up every time others are removed from the platform.

The posts often feature a US flag waving over a wooded northern border, set to Indian music, urging wannabe border crossers to DM them for more details.

“Payment after reach,” reads one post, while another assures “100% safe.”

The competition can be cutthroat — “$4,000 cheapest in market,” one post reads.

Northern crossings have fallen from an average of around 4,500 Indian nationals nabbed each month before President Trump took office, to 2,900 since, according to US Customs and Border Protection data — but the Post has identified at least half a dozen of these coyote accounts still operating on TikTok.

The Post contacted one smuggler, who said it would cost $4,500 for one person to get to cross into the Empire State from Montreal.

Good place for soldiers with guns and target practice.

For some reason, I have even LESS tolerance with it coming from there.

Canada is supposed to be a REAL country...and Indians get in with large enough numbers as it is.

Shoot to kill...whoever it is.

That’ll end it fast.

We have some great loitering drones that could be patrolling that border.

Then have some quick reaction teams ready to swoop in.

All that money lost to a coyote and if they just would have waited in Canada they could have become a citizen of the 51st US state of Canada.

Having said that, we don’t need 39,980,284 more liberals to become US citizens.

Can’t remember the name of the politician who years ago tried to make fun of people who talked about people using Coyotes to cross from Mexico into the U.S., thinking they were suggesting the invaders were actually riding (yes) coyotes across the desert... Good Lord. And we elect such people.

Meanwhile, we should target their destinations. Companies are hiring these criminals and these companies should be made to pay. Dearly.

Why don't we do that?

If Indian restaurants would go back to buffets, maybe not quite as much of their labor would be required.

Well ICE did raid a local taco truck company in our city; they had several locations.

The company used to be very open about only hiring illegals.

Management was charged with labor/human trafficking violations.

Guess they found out.

I dunno, but I bet whatever the coyote uses came from Acme.
