The Associated Press is reporting that the human smuggling market on the US/Canadian border is very active compared to previous years.

The special operations supervisor with the Spokane Sector of the U.S. Border Patrol told The Spokesman-Review that during the last two months, Border Patrol agents grabbed 11 illegal aliens.

Lonnie Moore says that total is more than the total for the previous fiscal year. In the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, the Border Patrol arrested 10 illegal aliens in the Danville area.

The Human Smuggling market is listed at $10 Billion.
