I mean, there’s no guarantee that people are asylum seekers.

There are lots of people who cross the border from Canada illegally, which if they were asylum seekers Canada would be good enough. But if they are economic immigrants Canada isn’t good enough so they sneak across to America. That’s not legal. I’m Canadian, if I snuck through the forest to get to America and avoid the border checkpoint I would 100% expect to get arrested for many years.
