This is Canada
The vast majority are from India, Philippines, and China. Then you get Syria, Nigeria, and Pakistan. Meaning Islamic extremists. A goodly chunk are being imported, rather than coming to Canada illegally/showing up at the border demanding asylum
Canada proposes sweeping immigration and security bill
The Canadian government has proposed a bill to restrict some asylum claims and give authorities more power to halt the processing of immigration applications.
Canada’s immigration minister Lena Diab said the Strong Borders Act is meant to curb organised crime and the flow of illegal drugs and weapons, while boosting the “integrity” of the country’s immigration system.
It includes provisions that would give police more power to monitor Canada’s shared border with the US.
It could also bar those who have been in Canada for more than year from filing a claim for asylum. But critics said the bill, which seeks to expand authorities’ ability to open and inspect mail, would breach civil liberties.
The proposed legislation comes amid increasing pressure on Canada, which has historically been open to newcomers, to restrict immigration as the country deals with strained public services and a housing crisis.
Canada has a population of 40 million, a little more than California. And they’ve already brought in a 40th of that population in just 4 months.
They would also require people entering Canada from the US under the Safe Third Country Agreement – a long-standing deal requiring migrants to seek asylum in the first “safe” country they reach, whether it is the US or Canada – to file a claim in Canada within 14 days for it to be considered.
Those who fail to adhere to those deadlines would still be able to undergo a risk assessment that would determine whether their safety is at risk if they are sent away.
But, would they actually do it? Would they boot them out? What numbers are we talking about, when the government is bringing all the immigrants in? How many of the imports are claiming asylum? There are about 3 million non-permanent residents in Canada. About 500,000 illegals. About 450,000 claiming asylum. Can Canada crack down? Can they do things to slow the flow of drugs and guns across the border? Will they?
In fairness, Indians bring value, because the ones who come over from India tend to be a higher “caste”, looking for education and strong work, especially in the tech industry. Sure, they are a pain in the ass when it comes to negotiating, and need to stop wearing sandals with long pants, but, they are not going to be drains on government resources. They take care of their own and work hard. Canada needs to stop bringing in all the Chinese and Muslim extremists.
Meanwhile
Amazing. Canada isn’t deporting her for being a terrorism supporter, but, a clerical error.
The excitable teach talks of “importing” humans. We know why he uses that dehumanizing term. But we import oil, sneakers, avocadoes and cell phones, not humans.
Democrats have always imported people and dehumanized those they did. 1st they kidnapped blacks from Africa and forced them to be plantation slaves. Currently they bring them from third world countries to make and sell drugs for their cartels, use women and children in prostitution rings and mow their laws and cut their hedges.
You’re still doing it Elwood your party does all kinds of crap right in front of our eyes that we see and then you tell us it isn’t so. Not only do you lie but you lie like fools. That’s why none of us believe anything you guys say any longer. That’s why 10 years of your bullshit is far far enough.
L’Roy,
If the legal capture and trafficking of Africans to the U.S. was banned in 1808, how did the Democrats “import slaves” in 1828 and later?
Southern conservative Democrats DID support the institution of slavery in the Confederacy. Southern Dems started to abandon the party when the national Dem party decided to support integration in the 40s, 50s and 60s. The last Democrat to win Mississippi was southerner Jimmy Carter in 1976 (49 years ago). Mississippi even favored George Wallace in ’68, Goldwater in ’64, Strom Thurmond in 48, but supported FDR four times in the 30’s and 40’s.
