Integrated Border Enforcement Teams

Integrated Border Enforcement Teams (IBETs) are collaborative groups comprising law enforcement agencies from different levels of government, including federal, provincial, state, and local authorities. Their goal is to enhance border security and combat cross-border crime, such as smuggling and human trafficking. By working together, these teams share resources, intelligence, and expertise, allowing for a more effective response to criminal activities that occur along borders. This integrated approach helps ensure a safer and more secure environment while facilitating legitimate cross-border trade and travel.
