The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) is reminding Canadians that they can anonymously report suspicious activity at Canada’s borders.

In a tweet on March 30, the government agency urged anyone with relevant details to get in touch, promising that all calls are anonymous and "any information provided is confidential."

“Help keep Canadians safe by contacting the #CBSA Border Watch Line to report suspicious cross border activities,” the message reads.

Examples of the kind of affairs the agency is interested in include drug smuggling, commercial trade fraud, firearms and weapons smuggling and people involved in human smuggling or trafficking.

The CBSA asks for as much information as possible when making an anonymous report.
