US border patrol boat strayed into Canadian waters chasing migrants: fishermen

A US border patrol boat strayed into Canadian territorial waters while chasing "illegal immigrants" off the coast of Maine and Nova Scotia, Canadian fishermen said Wednesday. Laurence Cook, chair of the Grand Manan Fishermen's Association, said on Facebook that a US border patrol launch out of Maine attempted to stop a Canadian fishing vessel in Canadian waters. Grand Manan is a Canadian island in the Gulf of Maine, right off the coast that hosts the border between the United States and Canada.
