It seems that at least one sanctuary city, NYC, is putting out the "Not
Welcome Here" sign - and diverting illegal immigrants to Canada. They're
even buying the bus tickets to get them here.

Of course OUR gutless country is effectively a member of the Open
Borders Club so they won't find a lot of obstacles here. All they have
to do is cross at Roxham Road, which is an *UNOFFICIAL* crossing and
they'll find Mounties there to help them with their luggage. (If they
try to cross at an official border crossing, they can be turned back but
at an unofficial crossing like Roxham Road, they get in.)

Trudeau, who has already said our goal is to take in 500,000 newcomers a
year - an unprecedented high number in a country that was already taking
in a lot of people - isn't going to lower the numbers despite a health
system that is on the verge of collapse and housing prices that are
making home ownership practically unthinkable. I'm sure he just sees
future Liberal voters and that trumps all other considerations.

It gets really cold in the winter there, doesn't it?

That won't do much to thin out the herd of illegal immigrants. The first thing the government gives them when they arrive is warm winter clothing.

Twenty-odd years back, one of the (many) wives of the (then) dictator of Somalia was living somewhere here in Canada, on welfare. Despite being on welfare, she went back to Somalia multiple times a year to see her husband, the dictator. She was interviewed on the news and didn't seem to think there was anything "off" about that. I noticed she had nicer furniture than anything I've ever owned. I don't know if her husband sent her the money for that and she just kept it "off the books" or if the government had effectively bought it for her.

Which for me is outrageous since while _I'm_ OK my kids aren't and
they're 30-somethings which is what my wife and I were when we bought
our first home and our kids are nowhere close.

Except for my second daughter who emigrated to the UK and her and
boyfriend bought a 150 year old place (which isn't as big a deal as it
would be in Canada) in Brighton south of London. She's in a line of
work where tele-commuting is reasonably common and in person meetings
with clients are mostly for presentations.

Compared to what?

Compared to Minneapolis Kitchener-Waterloo is rather tepid.

Compared to Florida K-W is "freezing your buns off".

Vancouver (where I am) is rather warmer in winter - it's high 7 low 3
(or if you prefer 44 and 38)

Many of you anonyshit eunuchs? Does Canada breed UsenetQUEERS like you?

That seems like short-sighted solution to me. ;-)

Perhaps but having driven the highway from North Dakota to Winnipeg I
can tell you that somebody wearing summer gear could EASILY die if
they tried crossing that portion of the border in winter.

In January -30 on that stretch of road is WARM even if there is no
wind blowing which is almost never.

Even Canadian and American conservative legislators of the "one is too
many" sort would be adverse to "bodies on the border".

This isn't west Texas or California we're talking here.

(And yes I have personally driven that highway in mid-winter)
