Description

Human trafficking is not just a distant problem — it is happening in Canada, often hidden within migration and refugee processes. The numbers are staggering, and the systems meant to protect are being exploited.

Kelly Sundberg, criminology professor, unpacks how organized crime networks exploit Canada’s immigration framework. From overwhelmed refugee claims to smuggling operations that morph into trafficking, the discussion sheds light on how victims are drawn into forced labor without even realizing it.

This episode exposes the urgent need for systemic reform, stronger oversight, and deeper awareness of how trafficking and smuggling intersect at the Canadian border.
