When the American dream becomes a Canadian reality

Propelled by fear — fear compounded after President Trump’s election and the start of the era of disruption, especially for immigrants, that he promised — they have fled north, walking miles across snowy fields, leaving the ghosts of their old lives behind, cars abandoned near the border, toys sitting unused in empty apartments. Drawn to America by the historic promise of liberty and opportunity, their guideposts now were the red lights flashing atop wind turbines, showing the way through the dead of night into a more welcoming land.

Canada is a racist country. Only 2.5% of Canadians are black. Clearly, they won’t let blacks into the country

Make Amtrak Great Again—put in a direct line to the Canadian border.

Canada has strict immigration laws. They are required to have a sponsor family, work skills, etc.

Many of these people will be "illegal" in Canada just as they are here.

Why is this not even mentioned in the Globe article?

Actually the biggest problem Canada has is all the rich Chinese moving in and driving up the cost of Real Estate.

Reads like the first Page of a Novel, it was a dark and stormy night...

A Canadian mystery novel starts out: “ Sure was damp that night.”

[Nifster]

Let the Canadians pay for them

I’ve never laughed so hard at just one paragraph in my life, I think :)
Toys left in apartments. ROFL!!

Indeed. The first thing I thought of was that the author left out "It was a dark and stormy night".

I just hope all handouts, assistance they were getting from USA in any way stops as they leave, not somehow still paid out and they somehow receive it - we know there are a lot of people receiving money support of some kind that should not be.

My heart aches for these illegal invaders..

I wonder what this writer would say if i helped myself and my poor family into his McMansion in Wellesley, Weston, Sherborn etc MA and made myself at home...

[Peter ODonnell]

I don’t think this crew can win Olympic gold, therefore, send them back I say. /s

>>>A Canadian mystery novel starts out: “ Sure was damp that night.”<<<

Shouldn’t that be, “Sure was damp that night, EH”?

LOL

Lyndon Johnson's great society welfare system has been an absolute disaster for America.... It is no doubt the root of all our anger, strife and pain....

MHO.......

I read Canadian women’s magazines: they think they are nicer than we are because they are helping refugees of the world achieve their dream. They don’t want to be a melting pot. They call what they have is “positive tension.”

Valid points. This is a make readers feel bad and hate trump, fake news from the left wing Globe.

Anyone who believes in this bs has a real problem re identifying reality versus left wing pc bs posing as news.
