You are talking about things like getting medical procedures which they would have to wait for in Canada.

Perhaps filling up their gas tanks and a few extra cans because taxes are lower here. Or stocking up on booze and smokes for the same reason, aren't you?

Big difference from popping our anchor babies and living off poverty programs for multiple generations.

Guaranteed some Canadians do go to the US to mooch, maybe not healthcare, but other things, as I’m sure some Americans do the vice versa, but neither is traversing the border in the same way illegal Mexicans are....not even close.

If the illegal aliens are such good, hard-working, honest people, why doesn’t the Mexican government do more to keep them there?

The AP and ‘carlos’ speaking for all of Mexico saying they were humiliated. That’s how low they will stoop to ignore the historic and relevant nature of that meeting.

“Guaranteed some Canadians do go to the US to mooch, maybe not healthcare,”

Actually I WAS thinking of healthcare.

“... but other things, as I’m sure some Americans do the vice versa, but neither is traversing the border in the same way illegal Mexicans are....not even close.”

Very true.

Yup. Other things too: how many Canadian Olympic medals winners were trained at US universities...it seemed quite a lot watching the last Olympics. Which makes me think how many Candadian doctors, engineers, etc are we training?

Does their university system reciprocate? Or are Americans resented up there?

“Big difference from popping our anchor babies and living off poverty programs for multiple generations. “

Very true, equating the Canadian border to the Mexican one is ridiculous, but there are issues.

I guess Mexicans love the drug gangs that are killing their people and holding their country hostage? How’s that tourist industry working out for ya Mexico?

Trump 1
Mexico 0

That makes up for all the Trump supporters bullied and beaten by Mexican illegals outside his rallies.

The American MSM is angry about Trump meeting with the Mexican prez, and is imagining that everyone else is angry, too.

President Enrique Pena Nieto said Mexicans felt "aggrieved" and had disagreements with the Republican presidential candidate, but he never did what people here wanted most: demand that Trump apologize. Adding to the anger, in the press conference Trump repeated his promise to build a border wall between the countries.

"Trump can leave at ease now. The humiliation was complete," Televisa news anchor Carlos Loret de Mola tweeted, after lamenting that Trump would dare to reiterate his intention to build a wall "in our face and home."

What? That is not at all what I saw. Granted, I was working at the time and had the t.v. on in the background, but it seemed quite respectful to me.

If this is twisting of the facts, it seems the media in Mexico (that's where it's coming from, right?) are even worse than those here.

What I find more amazing is that there were no attempts on Trump’s life.

Obama wouldn’t even go there with that level of security. Trump did it and boldy walked right by the Cartels with his middle finger extended.

President Trump, already.

Canadians don’t come down here and mooch off our system. Why do you?

Exactly. Both borders are throwing porous but only one has a massive influx of illegal people.

This makes me super mad because I think they actually had a good meeting, and from what little I gathered (again, sorry, was working)m it seemed like it was polite and respectful and that DJT wants to work with the Mexican President.

Yes, build the wall in your face and in OUR home.

Suck it up, crybaby.

The Spanish colonists in Mexico who routinely export their indigenous poverty to the US are angry that Trump didn’t apologize for telling the truth.
