Governments have myriad methods of extracting money from others such as slight increases in tariffs and entrance fees for rail and road commerce heading north. I'm sure there's plenty of other ways to achieve it. It doesn't have to a specific 'Border Wall Fee', just income via various means to offset the cost of the wall.
