cómo voy a creer que el horizonte es la frontera
que el mar es nadie
que la noche es nada
(Mario Benedetti. Utopias)

In Canada, the increasing involvement of policing in immigration policies as well as in controlling the flow of newcomers is defining new frontiers among civil liberties, sovereignty and security. This reinforced factor is leaving immigrants and "visible minorities" along with Canada's sovereignty in a more vulnerable situation.
