A foreign national has pleaded guilty to conspiring to facilitate the smuggling of illegal migrants into the United States, and will face deportation after serving a two-year prison sentence, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) says.
Edgar Gonzalez de Paz, 37, pleaded guilty to facilitating illegal entries into the United States at a Montreal courthouse on Nov. 6, the CBSA said in a Nov. 10 news release. The agency says Gonzalez de Paz faces a prison sentence of two years less a day.
