Walking through borders

[sk_wheatking]

I tried pasting the cbc news article on the refugees walking north through Manitoba from the u.s. but couldn't figure it out. Anyway looks like the new normal moving into the future here. Now that they have figured out that that's the ticket in I think the migration wave will be under way as they say down south "big league"

Wonder why at Emerson? I haven't heard of any other ports, not saying it isn't happening all along the border.

Build a wall, a moat with alligators won't work this far north!

Is this it? No border fences or security here. Now, if the Donald wants to build a wall....

"Winnipeg immigration lawyer Bashir Khan said he was surprised to hear about the two men who entered Canada on Christmas Eve.

He said he has never seen people walk through fields near the border in the dead of the winter to seek refuge. He also said people fleeing their countries will go at great lengths to find safety.

"The actions of these people is understandable.""

"Fleeing their countries..." Bwahahahaha!

If these people have no paperwork, no credentials, how are they properly vetted? Anyone know?

[Braveheart]

They can't be vetted. But also, how did they get into the US in the first place? If it's that easy Prez Donald is right, we have to figure out what the Hell is going on.

Also, now they need services, health and social for sure.

If they can't apply through proper channels, load em up and send them back from whence they came.

As a Native Canadian, I can't help wonder what the ancestors thought when those pale hairy faces started flooding into the countryside hundreds of years ago.

On radio this am. One had a job in US. But all family still over the pond. Travel ban initiated their decision.

Who even cares anymore. Just remember one thing.....with all the different ethnic backgrounds entering canada how many generations/years will it take for a power struggle to start for leadership of the country by one etnic group or another with enough power behind them through imigration to form their own society? Just a thought. I have nothing against imigration as long as it is done properly and people want to come here because they like our society and values along with traditions. I think that the problems with Mexican imigration down in the u.s. will come to a nasty head unfortunately in the years ahead. There will most likely be an uprising fir southern territory. I hope I'm wrong.

As long as we don't become another Isreal and Palestine.

I like the Tragically Hip, their music lyrics are thought provoking IMO. I found this explanation of The European annexation of Canada really interesting.
