The Second City comedy club is in Chicago, but the Second City TV series was produced in Canada.

Mostly in Toronto. A couple of seasons in Edmonton.

Is anyone steering the ship there,or are they just letting it go it’s own way?

The way she's listing to port, I'd say someone tied the wheel off and walked away.

As long as the numbers stay small, they will be fine with it, If it gets, um, larger they will have to be a little more stern. Of course, by then it will be too late for them.

This hits on the current situation which has occurred in the last three days. There were photo ops and the press publicity which included videos of the migrants. Most ordinary viewers would only feel some empathy and indeed distress. Now reality has hit home.

The Mayor of Emerson has called emergency meetings. The Salvation Army Hostel filled to the brim. The medical system now overburdened. He called on Ottawa, where Canada's Liberal Party rule. There is now some desperation for these ordinary, decent folks. They realise that they could be damned as having xenophobia or being bigots at the drop of a hat.

The nearest large city is Winnipeg and they seem to be making some effort to help. I heard a 110,000 dollars coming the way of Emerson. From Prime Minister Trudeau I do not hear very much at this time.
