According to data from the most recent count carried out in 2022, at least 10,000 people were visibly homeless in Quebec, an increase of almost 50% compared to 2018. While the worsening situation is a cause for concern, the extent to which homelessness is being prosecuted is also a cause for concern. So what are the solutions to this sensitive social issue?
According to international conventions governing sea rescue operations, maritime borders should not interfere with rescue efforts, as saving lives at sea is defined as a priority. However, since 2015, and in the specific context of maritime migration, the adherence to SAR conventions by signatory states has often taken a back seat, overshadowed by national sovereignty concerns focused on the dual control of borders and migratory flows. This interference of borders with the fundamental principles of sea rescue is part of a broader process of border externalization and the militarization of sea rescue operations.
