WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Scott Walker says that building a wall along the country's norther border with Canada is a legitimate issue that merits further review.

Republican candidates have generally taken a get-tough approach on deterring illegal immigration, but they usually focus on the border with Mexico.

The Wisconsin governor was asked whether he wanted to build a wall on the northern border, too, during an interview Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press."

Walker says law enforcement officials in New Hampshire brought up the topic of building a wall along the U.S.-Canadian border during a recent town hall meeting. He says they raised some legitimate concerns, so it's a "legitimate issue for us to look at."

A wall on our southern border? You betcha! A wall to the north? I don’t see the need.

He’s right, we don’t want to be unfair. Thats why we search the 86 year old Vietnamese lady at the airport.

There haven’t been 20 million people crossing the canadian border headed south, but hey. Fair is fair.

Good lord. Facing the wrong direction in all senses of the word. I’m so glad he imploded so quickly.

What a moron is absolutely right. I used to live 12 miles from Canada, our northern colony. Unlike Mexicans, Canadians love to visit and are quite happy to go home at the end of the day. They are civilized, polite, and, more importantly, they respect our laws. Again, all unlike Mexicans.

Israeli security doesn’t waste time in “fairness.” The result being that there hasn’t been a hijacking of an Israeli commercial flight in decades, at the cost of some nuisance to Arabs and Muslims, less nuisance to Christians, and almost no nuisance to Jews.
