Maybe we should build a wall on the Canada/US border and let all you folks that think the sun shines out of Uncle Sam's asshole move to the south side of it?
they weren't put up in a hotel in Saskatoon , and offered free Medicare and welfare
give me a ****ing break , these aren't refugees , they're opportunists

The millions of Mexicans that move to the US cleaning toilets for the rich and working in packing plants and doing all the other jobs your born in America Americans don't want to do. Many work for under minimum wage and send that money home to support their families - they don't live in sod shacks but I'm sure they'll live in the worst of accommodation many times. You can be damn sure they don't get free Medicare or welfare in the US.
heard still some living in hotels in Saskatoon not long ago
you can bet they're getting free Medicare .
couldn't give a **** about trump or his wall . too many problems here
Mexicans are great people , hard workers , shoulda brought 25000 of them instead , maybe I could get some help on the farm

My grandparents never visited their home country again after they got here. In fact, they barely ever made it out off the tiny homestead in the middle of nowhere. There was no welfare or CPP or OAS or medical care. There was nothing out on this land. And they carved something out of it that we all benefit from. To compare todays immigrants with them is the most insulting thing ever. They were pioneers not immigrants and they would be appalled at our pathetic weak country.

Instead of causing a shut down where innocent people don't work while politicians play their childish games how about it be illegal to shut down government and if an agreement isn't reached the politicians pay a fine both sides pay a huge fine in accordance with their income. For example trumps a billionaire so he and any other billionaire that can't negotiate an agreement pay 10 s of millions per each day an agreement isn't reached. Things would get settled a whole lot quicker and less stupid stunts would be pulled.
