A wall with Canada? The idea came up during a Republican presidential debate, from a candidate insisting his party’s border policies aren’t tough enough. Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy brought it up unprompted on Wednesday night in Miami. Bombing drug labs in Mexico has become an increasingly popular idea in his party, along with building a wall along the southern U.S. border. But Ramaswamy said these policies don’t go far enough.
“There was enough fentanyl that was captured just on the northern border last year to kill three million Americans. So we’ve got to just skate to where the puck is going — not just where the puck is,” he said. “Don’t just build the wall — build both walls.” For context, U.S. Customs and Border Protection reports that two pounds of fentanyl have been seized in the northern border region this year. That represents approximately 0.0074 per cent of the 27,000 pounds seized overall.

Wikipedia: “The Canada–United States border is the longest international border in the world. The terrestrial boundary (including boundaries in the Great Lakes, Atlantic, and Pacific coasts) is 8,891 km (5,525 mi) long.”
It’s not “Build-the-Wall” anymore.
It’s Build *Both* Walls.
I visited the Northern & Southern Borders this month. This isn’t a technical challenge, the country that put a man on the moon can fix this. It’s a question of political will. https://t.co/Xg2UXuU65T
