"Canada, sensibly, has invited those Haitians originally granted temporary refuge to apply for permanent residence on compassionate or humanitarian grounds, and has granted most such requests."

So what's the complaint?

Issue an invitation also to all those "celebrities" who vowed to immigrate to Canada if Trump were elected. He was. Take them in.

'a dreadful political quandary is taking form: give the arriving Haitians a free pass, even if they're all just as deserving of compassionate/humanitarian treatment as those who came to Canada after the quake, and Ottawa will only incentivize hundreds of thousands more arrivals at our border.

"If you do an amnesty, if you open that door, you open it to everyone," says Dislodges.'

So what? To do otherwise would be "shameful. Utterly, debasingly, shameful."

"Since the beginning of the year, some of those people have been showing up at the Canadian border, where they're led to believe there's more hope."

You mean there isn't?

How shameful. Utterly, debasingly, shameful!

The U.S. government doesn't care at all that they're foisting this onto us.

If these were AMERICANS fleeing the U.S., that MIGHT be an accurate statement. As it is, it is Haiti, Guatemala, Mexico, El Salvador etc., as well as the migrants migrants themselves who are "foisting" on Canada.

Wouldn't it be an absolute HOOT if Canada were to build a wall on the border!

Which,of course,they'd have every right to do if they wanted to.

These people are now free to return home to Haiti
Haiti is now considered a “ safe country”
How much did Canada contribute to that vs the US?

Canada is filled with INHUMAN RACISTS, which is the only reason they’re upset about the chance to ‘diversify’ their Lilly-white country. It just SICKENS me to have to live with a neighbor filled with such HATRED.

Anuway, welcoming the victims of the Haitian apocalypse was the human thing to do.

Only if they they're NIMBY Mr. McDonald?

Well the problem would be getting the Americans to pay for it.

Canada is building a 6 lane vehicular bridge from Windsor to Detroit, the Gordie Howe Bridge. Canada is paying for the entire project including the customs plaza on the US side and infrastructure in Detroit to hook up to existing highways.

The solution to this problem lies in Canada, not in US policies. Canada controls who enters the country. Deny them entry, send them back, problem solved.

Canadians are starting to see through tis horseshit.. and are not happy....most of these so called refugees have criminal records and would not likely be allowed to stay in the U.S. after the amnesty expires...Canada ‘s muslim immigration Minister is under heavy fire since most Haitians are headed to Quebec where the influx is not welcome
