Well there is some “anti-American” sentiment among some Canadians but in my experience those people don’t travel to the U.S., so you can pretty much assume Canadian residents who vacation in America are friendly. As to illegals using a Canadian border crossing, it’s just a subset of the larger problem of not having strict enough law enforcement in place, your laws already forbid illegal entry (if the person is not a legitimate tourist intending to return home, or a legal immigrant, or some other person with a legitimate reason to enter the country) then they could be turned back, and the business of claiming asylum could be policed better too, what I would suggest is an interview process where it’s made clear that an unsupported refugee claim would be followed by a $5,000 fine and instant deportation, so the person could self-deport rather than paying presumably a lot more to achieve deportation from America.
I am sure Trump can figure out how to combine existing and any required new legislation to solve future cases but how to find and deport the twenty million illegals already in country? It’s going to be a massive undertaking (no pun intended).
So USA hockey just got better?

This is totally wrong, as anyone who has had to deal with the Quebecois in Florida will tell you.
I have an uncle who goes on and on about how terrible the USA is, how terrible Trump is etc.
He hasn’t bought gasoline in Canada for decades. Or milk, cheese, eggs, chicken, turkey or anything else that is even slightly cheaper in Washington State.
