Earth will get a 'mini-moon' this month, but it's only visiting

A rocky body is seen approaching Earth from space.

An asteroid will pass so close to Earth on Sept. 29 that it will temporarily be captured by gravity and be our planetary companion for nearly two months.

Smugglers are advertising illegal Canada-U.S. border crossings on TikTok

Since January, more than 13,000 people have been arrested, including almost 9,000 between May and July, after clandestinely crossing the border from Canada into the U.S.

The number of irregular entries into the U.S. from Canada has exploded in recent months. Radio-Canada has found multiple TikTok accounts selling the promise of safe passage through the border for Indian temporary residents in Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia.
