Moncton sits on the highway corridor to Halifax.
The stretch of highway between Moncton and Halifax is a well-known human trafficking corridor in Atlantic Canada. Traffickers move people along highways like ours to isolate them from family and stay ahead of police.

Read the facts on trafficking in CanadaSome common myths
Tap a card to flip it
- Myth 01
“Trafficking means being kidnapped by a stranger.”
The factsMost often, it's someone they know: in Canada, usually an intimate partner or an acquaintance.
- Myth 02
“It only happens in big cities far from here.”
The factsIt happens here. In 2024, New Brunswick's rate of police-reported trafficking was above the national rate, and Nova Scotia's was triple it.
- Myth 03
“Victims are adults who knew the risk.”
The factsMany aren't adults. More than one in five victims identified by police in Canada were under 18.
- Myth 04
“If it were common, we would see it in the news.”
The factsIt's hidden and under-reported. Statistics Canada says police figures likely underestimate how common it is.
