Ontario struggling to pay for irregular migrants: minister

The Ontario government says costs to social services are “escalating” as irregular migrants continue flocking to the province’s biggest cities.

“Let’s be very clear: There is a failed border policy in Quebec that’s having an impact in Ontario,” said Lisa MacLeod, minister of children, community and social services. “Right now, we are $200 million and counting. We are asking the federal government to come to the table.”
