Illegal crossing from US to Canada needs to be raised - but how?

Illegal crossing from US to Canada needs to be raised - but how?

The US government is committed to deporting people out of the US; not to their country of origin. Note they aim to remove everyone seemingly from central/south america to Mexico. I would hesitate to mention at a government level simply because their "solution" could be to shoot these people so they can be detained. The best case scenario is to allow people to claim refugee status from the US so they can be checked and admitted. I know this puts a strain on the refugee/immigrants from overseas but this is the problem the the EU has been dealing with for the last decade so we should be able to look to them for solutions. Internally the Feds should provide funding to Manitoba.

  1. Just a side comment to add regarding deporting all Latinos to Mexico instead of their natural countries:

    The President of Mexico said yesterday that he recognizes this is happening and will use it against Trump. Unless America can PROVE the people being deported are Mexican citizens, Mexico will refuse their entrance...

    At first it sounds a bit hypocricital. But, it is a completely Internationally Accepted Legal right of the Mexican government and it will slow down many many deportations. He went on to further say that Mexico will not aid America in identifying those who are citizens...

    I think it is a very good push-back with a strong legal foundation... Most Central and South American countries are moving swiftly to adopt the same policy. This will create a huge backlog in processing - since the State Governments are refusing to assist the Feds... I believe he will continue to hire more ICE and Customs and Boarder Patrol agents but it will never be enough without the information they need...

    México 1 - Trump 0

  2. Well, you realize that Americans are rapists and murderers. Look at Charles Manson and Bill Cosby, for example! Gads, YOU need a wall!

  3. Ive dated a few Canadian women, one of those relationships was quite serious. So we discussed immigrating to her or my own country. From what I can remember, as this was well over a decade ago, it is not easy to be legal in Canada. The process is arduous. So I am perplexed as to why people are fleeing the US as if being legal there will be easier than attempting it here. I feel bad for any human that wasn't fortunate enough to be born in a country such as America and Canada...

  4. Tyger Jones immigration is a massive mess for any country, especially if it is illegal. But cleaning it up is no small feat. Which is why the past 3 administrations essentially "punted" the issue. If I where in power.. I would absorb the ones already here... And focus on staunching the influx. I recall Bush Jr looking for doing essentially that, but his party was not having that... As long as there is profit in misery and dominace, people in power have no desire in fixing anything. Politics has always been the sport of the greedy.

    Exactly..
    Today's headlines were:

    Private prisons prepare to profit under Trump's immigration policy

    In most of the big papers...

    If there's money - there's corruption... I agree..

  6. I agree Lieonte Munoz . Naturalize the ones already in the country working, paying taxes etc. Especially if it's been many years. The GOP seems to enjoy profiting off other people's misery.

  7. I made a preliminary application to immigrate to Canada in 1995, from that country just to its south. With my educational credentials, their scale said I needed $20,000 in assets to be allowed in. I had about $200 at that time. Can anybody lend me $18,800?

  8. The United Stares economy and our people's standard of living are dependent on illegal immigrants living here and has been for decades. The uninformed (almost everybody around here) think illegals are costing us. They are net job producers by keeping prices lower through their sub-minimum wage and no-benefit labor.

  9. Don't you know those illegals just show up and force employers to pay them for working? I asked someone how that worked since that's usually called volunteering (or being an intern in some places) They went away.

    And yes, Canada is difficult to immigrate to.

  10. I force my employer to pay me for working. It's called the wage and hour law!

  11. My legal last name originally was Morrison, btw. I changed it 3 years ago. Suppose we are related? Got room for a family member from way back?

  12. Morrison is not my real my married last name so we're not likely to be related. And I'm pretty sure we're not looking for a hard working, high paid adoptee to support us in our golden years...yet.

  13. Cass Morrison they not only enjoy it, they seem to need to feed off of it. To be fair, I'm sure there are profiteers on both sides of the political isles. Also, I had to take a probative look at my stock portfolio, as I wanted to make sure that the monies I give to my financiers was not being pooled into any companies that invest in any scheme that causes misery. The funny thing is that I'm a fiscal conservative. I just can't seem to grok how some humans can feel good about seeing another human caged or oppressed. Some seem to think that anyome who opposes such dire issues simply must be a "hippie" or liberal. I'm just a human being that has no desire in seeing others suffer.
