[Congressman Billybob]

Since he is an elected official, I was wrong to call him a bureaucrat. However, I stand by every other word. His approach to the question of illegal immigration is worse than that of the US.

I refer to it as the Bird-Feeder Problem. If you have too many birds, you don't solve the problem by putting out more food and more feeders. You put out less food and less feeders. None, if you really want to discourage the feathered mendicants.

This Canadian is following policies which encourage Mexicans to some all the way from Florida to go on the Canadian dole. That leads to the conclusion that Canadian laws are even worse than the American ones on illegal immigration. And that's what I said, and stand by.

I guess the Miami Cubans have never forgiven Mexico for sheltering Fidel when he was an exile...

BB, like I said I have enjoyed your many post and am surprised I find myself arguing with you about anything, however, you have got this wrong, my friend.

Eddie Francis is the mayor of Windsor. He does not set immigration policy. He does not set welfare policy. He knows about your "bird feeder" analogy. He is simply trying to deal with the result of bad policies set by other people at senior levels of government.
