WINDSOR, Ontario, Sept. 20 — Fleeing stepped-up sweeps by the American authorities, illegal immigrants to the United States, mostly Mexican, are arriving in growing numbers at the foot of the bridge in this Canadian border town seeking refugee status.
Still more immigrants, mostly Mexicans living illegally in Florida, have begun trying to make their way past America’s northern border at other locations, the majority of them flying into the airport in Toronto, Canadian officials said Thursday.
The arrivals here began suddenly three weeks ago, just a family or two at first, fueled by the notion — largely unfounded, the authorities here say — that Canada would grant them asylum.

>> But if you insist on granting them refugee status we’ll be glad to send you 12+ million more.
Maybe they should build forty-foot-long running boards for illegals to ride on, on the side of all those Mexican tractor-trailers that’ll be burning their way north up I-35... they can make a couple extra bucks per load as “canuck coyotes”! LOL!
Illegal aliens in this country, especially 'hispanics' use social services at a higher rate than anyone. They're not all after 'jobs'.
Households headed by illegal aliens imposed more than $26.3 billion in costs on the federal government in 2002 and paid only $16 billion in taxes, creating a net fiscal deficit of almost $10.4 billion, or $2,700 per illegal household.

One has to love the result of this as Canada will not play games with them presto and they will be deported once they are refused asylum that is. Yet one has to wonder how they can allow themselves to be scammed or conned into believing this would work.
Now who wants to be those running the scam are of Hispanic heritage? I mean they are dealing with illegals who cannot speak English or could it be a Cuban Mafia?
The apple growers I knew in the Beaver Valley north-west of Toronto hired crews of Jamaican immigrants to come pick the crop. Same crews year after year. They got to know them personally and they went home at the end of harvest and it all worked out fine.
The Mexican illegals are going to have some competition..
They’re `self-deporting?’ But the administration, Ted Kennedy, the Weekly Standard and Wall Street Journal said that wasn’t going to happen . . .
Already, they have filled a shelter with 30 single men and are now paying four motels to house families, said Maj. Wilfred Harbin, administrator for the Salvation Army here. Meals were being delivered to the families by taxi cab.
“We have no idea what we are going to do,” said Major Harbin, who said he had heard that as many as 7,000 Mexicans might be seeking refugee status in the coming weeks.
Eddie Francis, the mayor of Windsor, faxed a letter Wednesday to Canadian federal authorities seeking financial help.
Thats for sure.
From the article
Referring to the help Canadian authorities have already given them, Mr. Gonzalez, who traveled from Naples, said, “What we didn’t have in the United States we had here in a second.”
That pretty much says it all for the illegal attitude. I am pretty sure he as much means free stuff as he does acceptance. I hope it turn into a freakin’ flood. Canada will be changing its tune real fast. And the good part is, they cannot send them back HERE. LOL!
Yes they should clean up their own country.
LOL That would be something.
Same thing in Holland Marsh- all of the vegetable growers hire from the Caribean.
Yes they should.
much tougher then = much tougher THAN
“*Montreal*,”
NEWSFLASH.....Dateline 2020.....Canada passes law requiring that all sign in businesses and government offices must be in English, French, and Spanish.
“I could smell the freedom when I crossed over,” said Ms. Gonzalez, 25. “I don’t know what’s going to happen next, but the pressure of worrying about getting caught never let you sleep well.”
If only that were true.
Great story! Haitians ripping off Mexicans and sending them to Canada.
I’ll gladly take 50 of them at a time in a U-Haul to the Ambassador Bridge at $250 a head. I’ll even print the documents to apply for their Canadian green cards along with a Mapquest roadmap on how to get to the Windsor Welfare Dept. I might even thrown in a maple leaf patch.
