Worried about Trump, asylum seekers walk cold road to Canada.
WINNIPEG, Manitoba/BUFFALO, New York (Reuters) - Refugees in the United States fearing a worsening climate of xenophobia in the wake of a divisive U.S. presidential campaign are flocking to Canada in growing numbers.
Manitoba's Welcome Place refugee agency helped 91 claimants between Nov. 1 and Jan. 25 - more than the agency normally sees in a year. Most braved the freezing prairie winter to walk into Canada.
"We haven't had something before like this," said Maggie Yeboah, president of the Ghanaian Union of Manitoba, which has helped refugees get medical attention and housing. "We don't know what to do."
A temporary restraining order by a U.S. judge of President Donald Trump's executive order that blocked nationwide the implementation of key parts of the travel ban has provided a reprieve for refugees trying to come to the United States.

HaHoo
Victims of Fake News.
I hope that tens of millions more libs follow their lead.
It’s warmer walking south.
so it proves when you look to enforce the immigration laws the illegals etc will leave the country. Great more winning.
I’m glad they’re worried about Trump finally political correctness is dying a quick death.
Sounds like WINNING to me!
AND THIS IS THE second BLLEDING HEART post on this, in a very short space of time, here.
I think it was Alabama some years back, was putting a bill through that would crack down on illegals by strictly enforcing labor laws, welfare rules, housing, detainment, referrals to ICE, etc.
As I recall, the illegals began pulling up stakes and high tailing it to California, even before the bill passed.
Winnipeg, 30 seconds outside without something covering your ears and good bye ears

The link is good though the page is loading slow probably for the dog pile on Yahoo for their BS story.
I looked before posting but my point was all the negative comments on the Yahoo Site
Even if you just read few comments. Look how many likes there are !
The public ain’t buying this PC garbage...
I would expect Yahoo to pull the comments they are so over the top.
Thanks for the info...shall try again. :-)
After a winter in Winnipeg, they may decide that Iraq / Syria isn’t so bad after all.
LOL...the comments, which did NOT show up the first time, did show up this time, and are wonderful and well worth the read!:-)
The comments at Yahoo are great, good to see!
I remember a state doing this and the results of illegals leaving, but thought it was AZ.
Either way the fact is as you have pointed out is that if laws are enforced then we will see less illegals and those looking to violate the laws here.
And therein lies the reason Trump won the election. The American people know they can trust him to bring back law and order, although it looks like the left is going to fight him every step of the way.
yea the left see their open borders of the world , and their destruction of the west is in danger , and they will fight tooth and nail . Al led by the elitist like Soros
Refugees are fleeing America?
How stupid are the writers of this lame and fake azz article?
If you have “Refugee Status” in America the temporary ban on immigration to the United States doesn’t apply to you.
Idiot.
Ghana is not on the list of banned countries.
Besides, how long does it take to walk to Canada and lose your fingers, due to frost bite?
They are “two stew ped” to be in America.
