I smile sadly when I view the Canadian television people, eagerly milking this "human interest" story. There they are just across from Plattsburg, Up State New York at the Roxham Road in Quebec. The inevitable woman with a pack of sandwiches handing them out to the "refugees". The carefully crafted statements of the new entrants- re their plight if refused.

The huge stadium in Montreal built for the Olympics. Now a drag on the economic life of Montreal. Housing some of the applicants, numbering 11,200 this year. The dread charge of "racism" numbing the minds of Quebec residents. They dare not risk it.

At one time during the FLQ crisis in the 1960's violence erupted. The English speaking residents were tabbed "Les maudits Anglos". The accursed English. They said their culture was threatened, by ordinary Canadians of English stock.

I do not gloat over the situation. Nobody, especially our neighbours in the United States deserve this nightmare. Nightmare it is, if one deals with the one word- logistics. How does anyone feed, clothe, house and give medical attention to these invaders? Without cost and depriving their own people.?

Quebec feels it’s a leader for francophone countries.

I have friends I visit in Quebec and I have had to put up with their gloating over the problems that we have had in the US with race and crime.

But I have noticed many more darker-skinned Quebecois each time I have visited over the years and now with the latest influx of Haitians and Nigerians and the increases in crimes of violence in Montreal, their pomposity seems to have disappeared.
