Canada Border Security agents represented by theCustoms and Immigration Union are staging a demonstration at Montreal'sTrudeauairport today to protest recent job cuts.

The automated kiosks that are replacing border and security agents could lead to an increase in criminals and drug smugglers entering the country,said Fortin.

About 200 union membersare protesting against the loss of jobs, saying that the kiosks cannot replace well-trained agents and customs inspectors.
