No borders activists, anti-police organizers, and prison abolitionists gain access to the new migrant detention center under construction in Surrey, BC (Unceded Coast Salish territories) on the Multi-city Day of Action against the Canadian state's detention of migrants. October 3, 2019. The migrant prison is being built under much secrecy with little publicly available information. Gaining this kind of access by people opposing border controls, prisons, and state containment has not been possible previously at this site.
The new detention center is operated by the Canada Border Security Agency as part of the Canadian state's repression of racialized, precarious, migrant working class people. It is an institution of colonial and imperialist state violence.
