The red river flows arcorss the international boundary near Emerson. September 16, 2015 - (Phil Hossack / Winnipeg Free Press)  See Carol Sanders story, BUSY SUMMER ON MANITOBA’S UNDERGROUND RAILROAD  -- While thousands seeking asylum in Europe amass on its borders, a growing surge of refugee claimants quietly slip into Canada under the cover of darkness at a Manitoba border town. “Most local residents don’t see them because they arrive under the cover of darkness while people are sleeping,” said Wayne Arseny, Emerson’s former mayor. “They don’t want be to be spotted.” CBSA says nearly twice as many asylum seekers   walked up to the port of entry into Canada by way of Manitoba this summer compared to last  year. Some in the settlement community are calling the influx the “underground railroad” with many refugee claimants crossing here and moving on to Toronto and B.C.  Why here? Why now? What does it mean for Winnipeg and its already overwhelmed settlement services? 15” SANDERS (ART?)
