Canadians with mental illnesses denied U.S. entry

Data entered into national police database accessible to American authorities: WikiLeaks

More than a dozen Canadians have told the Psychiatric Patient Advocate Office in Toronto within the past year that they were blocked from entering the United States after their records of mental illness were shared with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Canadian privacy is not of concern here. They can do what they want to each other.

The Canadians have a game they play called THE DANCE OF THE FLAMING ASSHOLES. They have two naked guys stand on opposite sides of a street and they run a string of toilet paper from one guy’s rear end to the other guy’s rear end. Then, they light the middle of the toilet paper string on fire. Each guy has to drink a pitcher of beer and then scoot his butt across the pavement to remove the toilet paper or put out the fire. Canadians - they’re all a little bit crazy.

Americans can be denied entry into Canada for a DWI conviction (they treat that as something like a felony); the world government is here.

"World Government" would make a uniform rule for entry. Canadians still doing what they want is not a problem.

Sure, they've got your criminal records but so what.

Well, then, begin a campaign to send ALL of America's criminals to Canada.

I'm certainly not going to oppose that.

Their medical records are probably protected by tyranny of the pen.

Yeah, they have their own world where they do what they want but they insist on living in our world and telling us we can’t live the way we want.

Unfortunately.
Notice how everything this administration does is done to humiliate and further inconvenience Americans.
Never illegal aliens, terrorists, or ‘undesirable foreign nationals’.
