Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he and Joe Biden will discuss stemming the flow of irregular migration into Canada when the US President visits Ottawa next month.

Trudeau has been under pressure over the increasing number of asylum seekers entering from the US at a border crossing not far from Champlain, New York. It’s about 40 miles south of Montreal.
