Canada will offer temporary residency permits to travelers who become stranded here by President Donald Trump’s order banning travelers from seven Muslim-majority nations, the immigration minister said Sunday.

Ahmed Hussen, a Somali refugee, was recently named Canada’s immigration minister. He said no one is currently stranded at the country’s airports by the ban.

“Let me assure those who may be stranded in Canada that I will use my authority as minister to provide them with temporary residency if they need it, as we have done so in the past,” Hussen said.

Hussen said White House officials have offered assurances that permanent Canadian residents can enter the U.S. if they have a valid Canadian permanent resident card and a passport from one of the countries affected. Permanent residents are the equivalent of green card holders in the United States. …

The West insists on suicide.

No stupider human beings have ever walked the earth.

Western Man is becoming a dinosaur.

I figure that one of these days Canada’s boy-king will just tick of President Trump enough that there will be a tweet...”We are going to build a wall, this one will be on the north side and Canada will pay for it.

Why temporary? Racist Canada wants to stay white? 64% of America is non-Hispanic and identifiably white. Canada is 88%.

Canada has less than 1% Hispanic and 2.5% black. We are 18% and 13% respectively.

Why is Canada so racist?

“Canada to offer temp permits to those stranded by Trump ban”

Canada has plenty of money to address its priorities.

But Canada does not have the money to place a single Navy ship on the blue water. The security of that maritime nation is externalized to the United States.

“Jenny: If we could but weld our souls together, then with contempt shall I fling my glove in the world’s face; then shall I stride through the wreckage a creator!”

“The communists disdain to conceal their aims. They openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions.” …
The first quote was from Karl Marx to his bride-to-be Jenny von Westphalen (his idea of a marriage proposal); the second is from the last chapter of the Communist Manifesto. All leftists believe that existing society has to be ripped down to its foundations and rebuilt from the ground up; they are as megalomaniacal as the man whose ravings they follow to the letter.

The Canadian government is following Britian. A lot of Islamic damage has been done in England, but no NO ONE is talking about it. Canada will soon be sorry for allowing muslims “THEIR” rules and not Canada’s rule. Just wait.

Communism -the fascist Left - may be attempting this, but they won’t win. They are allied with Islam. Islam will overwhelm and destroy them, once the West has fallen.
