Ah yeah that is the point. They effectively control 32 miles of the 4000 mile Northern Border which means they would have way less illegals apprehended. And, the same report tells us that more terrorists cross the Northern border.
And we have not even talked about the Illegal Drug Trade. Bottom Line closing the Southern Border and leaving the Northern Border open will reduce illegals crossing the Southern Border but then more will cross the Northern Border and along with drug mules and the bad guys etc.
Can you give us a good reason to not build a wall on the Northern Border? And no "cost" is not a good reason. Stopping nefarious nutters the ability to wander over the line anytime they please is worth every penny we would spend on building the wall.
I gave you plenty of reasons. Canada is not Mexico. Canada actually has control over immigration and who is in their country.
Physical barriers are force multipliers when it comes to securing the border. We don't have a mass invasion from our Northern Border. Canadians are not fleeing to the US nor are other countries using it to transit thru to the US.
We don't have drug cartels operating in Canada nor are there spotters operating on the Northern border inside the US facilitating the influx of drugs. The US has lost control of security on the Southern border up to 80 miles inside the US. That is not the case with Canada.
You don't stop terrorists with walls or fences. Intelligence is the main weapon. We are working closely with Canada in that regard and they are putting in place much stricter controls exemplified by C-51.
You still avoided my question about building a wall between Alaska and Canada? Why? Because you know how silly that would be. It would be just as silly as building a wall along Florida because drug smugglers are entering by boat or small planes.
And in a nation with a $19 trillion national debt and over $100 trillion in unfunded liabilities (entitlement programs) how can you rule out costs? You use a risk assessment process to prioritize your needs. Building a wall along our Northern border is nonsense and you know it.
