When was the last time Refugees entered Canada from the US ,War of 1812 or the Civil War ?
Neither. Canada has never received “refugees” from the US. Some draft dodgers and criminals, yes.
22 so called “refugees” are “off the scale” ???
feel sorry for Germany they have 2 Million...
and how did people living in the US get to be “refugees” ???
theres Tim Hortons in Buffalo NY they can come back if they need their fix...
and I agree...as soon as I cross the border I always head for the closest Tim Horton’s
:)
Johnny Rebs from Tennessee would go to Canada during the War between the States but they weren’t refugees they were just hanging out having a respite from the fighting ...AKA AWOL...
one area in St Catherines was such a popular place it became known as Tennessee Street to this day...
:)
You asked for them, we are happy to deliver.
Canada does not take refugees from the US because the US itself is deemed a safe country for refugees. These people will probably be sent back. At least I hope so.
Canada will be building a wall when they get sick of them. And sick of the liberal(s) leading the country.
Yep. And it is an interesting crossing point. US 75 on the Minnesota side of the Red River and I-29 on the North Dakota side. Not the closest crossing to Minneapolis, St. Paul which is in the eastern side of the state, but the best road access.
There was even a skirmish in St. Albans, Vermont by some Confederate raiders who crossed over from Canada. They had to be treated as POWs, as I recall, because they put on the CSA uniforms before launching the raid.
Good! GTFO!
Hi Tennessee Nana!
Thanks for that neat info. I love trivia like that.
:)
I remember my Grandmother, who was from the South, saying “That is enough to feed Coxey’s army” or “There are enough of them to make up Coxey’s army”, etc. But she died before I could ask her who Coxey was. Her accent or pronunciation might have distorted what I heard.
Do you know who “Coxey” was?
Canada and Mexico actively support human trafficking in to the USA so they don’t have to deal with these “refugees.” But why would they send them to the evil racist xenophobic bigoted USA?
Here's a few who threatened to go to Canada if and when Trump was elected President.
Why the heck are they still here?
Can't they tell the truth about anything!
Let em freeze
Coxey’s army was a group of unemployed protestors who marched on Washington but it was decades after the civil war...
Thank you. I appreciate it.
I thought it was a Confederate general but couldn’t find one.
