“adults and five children from Venezuela, A second group of migrants — made up of six adults from Jordan, Sudan, Chad, and Mauritius”
How the heck did these people find the money to travel this far? They were either rich (in which case they had no need to “migrate”), or they were sponsored by someone.
Would it not have been easier to stay in a country along the way? No, they wanted the land of freebies,,,

They have probably been living in the US for years and got scared by the prospect of Trump returning them to where they came from.

By getting into Canada they won’t get locked up with the drug criminals until deportation or sent back to their home countries. Venezuela is a hellhole, I don’t blame people for not wanting to go back there, and I don’t blame a Venezuelan who left because of the Communist takeover there for not wanting to be lumped into detention with the criminals and mental cases Maduro sent to flood the border the last several years, either.
Sudan,Chad and Mauritius aren’t vacation spots, either, and while Jordan is better still not great, so extending a stay in North America by hoofing it to Canada is expected. This middle Eastern group if they are adult males though, is probably sketchy.
