Blame Canada.
Overrun by asylum-seeking migrants sent to the city from southern border states, New York has been offering free bus tickets to the Canadian border for migrants wanting to start a new life up north, but some are turning straight back around.
Ilze Thielmann, the director of nonprofit Team TLC — which has been organizing busses to Plattsburgh, where there is an unofficial crossing to Montreal — said the reality isn’t as rosy as people expect.
She told CBS: “They think that there are all these jobs up there. They think they’re going to be able to get asylum very easily up there and that’s just not the case.”
The Post first reported about the controversial program last week, with migrants receiving free tickets at the Port Authority bus terminal courtesy of charities funded by taxpayers.

Despite the free ride, Thielmann said migrants are getting frustrated with conditions and opting to return to New York City, where shelters and services have been strained by 43,000 asylum seekers in the past year.
Colombian native Jose Liandro, 37, crossed into Canada last week but told the Post via text after settling at a Hampton Inn and Suites hotel on the outskirts of Montreal he wanted to return to the US. see also Biden migrant crisis to cost NYC $4.2B, more than twice what mayor warned
Asked why, Liandro replied, “Mucha nieve,” Spanish for, “Lots of snow.”

Those aren’t migrants
Illegal aliens never are.
At some point, the world will realize that shuffling unwanted illegals around is just crazy. Ship them all back across the southern border, and let the countries in Central and South America handle their problem population. At this point, it’s just a question of how bad it has to get before real thinking takes over.
My cat did the same thing when my bil gave him to us.
Thinking and the natives causing the problem, who allow the invasion, are not really companions in this life. They are about feels.
Send them to Turkey.
Lefty jab countered by a lefty upper-cut.
Go home where it doesn't snow.

Someday they have to settle down.
sorry. no returns.
I vote for that- or Mogadishu, Kabul, Kenya, or the Vatican.
The Wanderer, written and sung by Dion DiMucci
Oh well I’m the type of guy who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are well, you know that I’m around
I kiss ‘em and I love ‘em ‘cause to me they’re all the same
I hug ‘em and I squeeze ‘em they don’t even know my name
They call me the wanderer, yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around
Oh well there’s Flo on my left and there’s Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl with that I’ll be with tonight
And when she asks me which one I love the best
I tear open my shirt I got Rosie on my chest
‘Cause I’m the wanderer yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around
Oh well I roam from town to town
I go through life without a care
‘Til I’m as happy as a clown
With my two fists of iron and I’m going nowhere

He obviously wants to go to Buffalo
RE: sorry. no returns.
LOL
Yes, we didn’t like them the first time.
The land of milk and honey turned out to be covered with ice and snow.
The Vatican ! Yes, capital idea. Frank the anti-pope seems to think open borders is wunderbar. Let him have millions flood his castle.
They have passports?
I’ve got to think it’s really the cold more than the snow..
