A black American man is applying for refugee status in Canada, citing police racism. Don’t laugh.

Americans are kind of at ease ignoring our neighbors to the north. Sure, we pay attention during the Olympic Games there or during the election of a new prime minister with Olympic-quality hair.

With another preening Trudeau in power who knows. Bye I think I see a lot of benefits if the Canadians approve this man's application.

I hope he doesn’t let the screen door hit him in the ass on his way north. He might have to apply for disability...

So. A petty criminal wants to splurge off the Canadian Welfare System as opposed to our good ol’ USA welfare?

Whatever.

Trudeau will absolutely agree - the whole notion fits so well with the present situation. The leftist Canadian fantasies and simplistic cliches about the USA, Canadian moral preening and self-righteousness, and Trudeau probably looking to make an incoming “statement.”

It’s just me, but I’m guessing he’s got a warrant and some PoPo he is looking to get shed of.

“Don’t laugh”

Too late. Should have started the headline with it.

We need a law that states actions such as this, if completed, are understood as vacating U.S. citizenship.

Good riddance. Maybe we can get half the population of Detroit and Chicago to follow.

I am sure Trudeau and his people have been watching the Liberals’ efforts in the US to import a permanent majority and taking notes.
