As an immigrant, I agree they have to go thru the process, however as you know as much about canada as you do about socialism, compassion and facts and truth, you keep carrying on dood.
fill your boots
You went from first world to first world, UK to UK
Big whoop, eh
Your ignorance is understandable, but Im not discussing racism, or xenophobia im discussing the immigration system as it stands.
You're talking about Trudeau, right. And all of your lily-white friends and neighbors

Canada frets over possible huge surge in asylum-seekers: sources
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada fears a huge surge in asylum seekers crossing the border from the United States, putting political pressure on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ahead of a 2019 election, sources familiar with the matter said on Wednesday.
The number of migrants illegally entering Canada more than tripled in July and August, hitting nearly 7,000. Haitians, who face looming deportation from the United States when their temporary protected status expires in January 2018, accounted for much of the inflow.
Two sources familiar with Canadian government thinking said citizens from El Salvador, Nicaragua and Honduras, who are slated to lose their U.S. protected status in early 2018, may also head north.
"There is concern we'll see a huge increase, mostly from Central America," said one source.
"The question is, which group is next, and how are we going to deal with it, and what is the impact on Canadians?" added the source, who requested anonymity given the sensitivity of the situation.
Most new arrivals are going to the predominantly French-speaking province of Quebec, sparking protests from opposition politicians and anti-immigrant groups.
Trudeau's Liberals need to gain support in Quebec to offset expected losses elsewhere ahead of an October 2019 election.
Asked whether the Liberals were worried about losing popularity in Quebec, the source said: "Absolutely. That's a concern."
But if Trudeau clamps down too far, he risks tarnishing a long-cultivated reputation for openness and tolerance. He pointedly tweeted Canada's welcome of refugees after U.S. President Donald Trump unveiled a travel ban in January.
"The government is in a real quandary over this," said a third source familiar with official thinking
Ottawa has hardened its tone in recent days, warning people not to cross the border since they could well be deported.
Trudeau said Canada was enforcing immigration rules.....
