The trickle of refugees fleeing the U.S. to Canada could become a deluge in the spring OTTAWA — As desperate asylum seekers continue to flee the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown by crossing into Canada, concern is growing here over whether the country will be able to cope if the number of migrants keeps growing. Stories of migrants hauling children and suitcases across frozen fields and snow-covered ditches into Canada have become headline news. The asylum seekers, who are fleeing President Trump’s travel and refugee bans as well as stepped-up arrests of undocumented immigrants, have received warm welcomes. But opposition politicians are criticizing the government of Justin Trudeau for being too harsh or too lax in its approach. The article goes on in typical Washington Post fashion to try to form your opinion for you by giving selective cherry-picked polling results from Canadians etc I think it's great. Overwhelm Canada, they want to be punished. They are refugees, and while some/many may be going thru the asylum refugee process and fear automatic deportation by Trump at some point, some may even have been vetted and gotten green cards but they fear being put in internment camps like the US did to Japanese & Japanese-Americans.. They have gotten the message that immigrants arent welcome in the US & refugees even less so.. They are just being smart about it and leaving rather than stay and face the risk & uncertainty & the increasing hate.. They will have a much better life in Canada anyway.. This is very much like the (as many as 30,000) slaves that traveled on the Underground Railroad to Canada to real freedom.. and like the (30,000 to 40,000) American draft dodgers who refused to fight in Vietnam and came to Canada instead.. And btw, Canada wasnt punished those times and wont be this time either.. Well then Canada is the answer! A win/win for everybody. I think Trump & Trudeau should decide on a 'Move to Canada' week ... say in March 2017 ... and everyone who wants to live there can up & move ... no strings. Wonderful! Refugees is what he said, he never said everyone.. you nutbar Trump lovers dont read too well.. No one in this thread other than yourself said refugees, even the Washington Post says immigrants. And it goes without saying, illegal immigrants. Criminals. Really? you are a fucking idiot..
