Yes I agree with this concept. I live just across the St. Mary's River from Michigan in Ontario. Woe betide anyone with any deceptive attempts at entry into Chippewa County. Trouble is the amount of river traffic between the two nations. Usually it is astute citizens on both sides who give the heads up to the border authorities.
On another note as I see the local University all pumped up for a sponsorship of Syrians, we have our own housing problems. Large public housing projects have emerged. The wait time for affordable public housing is 3-5 years! Private decent accommodation is quite expensive.
Yet accommodation will be found for "refugees". The average low income Canadian sometimes hard put for a decent abode here. 150 homeless accounted for. Yet the usual glad handers and greeters will be on hand for photo ops- for the big welcome. Anyone who carps like myself will be designated having certain phobias. (laughs)
The yoopers won’t be warm and friendly, I am betting.
