We are in the very early stages of a process to expel millions of foreigners.Germany has started offering foreigners cash to go back home.I wonder if Canada will someday be adopting one of those two policies...or will she allow herself to become a country of “Press 1 for Arabic...Press 2 for Spanish....Press 8 for English...Press 9 for French”?

Umm, no. Between 1999 and 2004 Canada received about 8,000 refugees a year over our land border. In 2004 Canada and the US signed a treaty that basically said refugees from a third country would have to apply for refugee status in the first country they landed, either Canada or the US. In other words if a Syrian refugee lands in the US they cannot claim refugee status in Canada.

Claims fell dramatically after that but ramped up to about 7,000 last year. Note, these figures are for refugee claims, not successful claims. I believe the number of successful claims are very low and most claimants are sent back. These people fleeing in the snow don't know they will be sent back.

Note to liberals, Canada does not take US citizens as refugees.
