Justin Trudeau does bizarre about-face on welcoming refugees, makes it sound like a ‘bowel movement’
August 21, 2017 | Carmine Sabia | Print Article
This is about as tough as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is going to get.

Seven months after telling refugees blocked by President Donald Trump’s temporary travel ban to come to Canada, the progressive prime minister has done an about-face.

He warned on Sunday, after a meeting with Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar in Montreal that refugees must come to Canada legally.

But he couldn’t bring himself to use the word illegal to describe the illegal border crossings.

“Canada is an opening and welcoming society,” he told the media. “But let me be clear. We are also a country of laws. Entering Canada irregularly is not an advantage. There are rigorous immigration and customs rules that will be followed. Make no mistake.”

That sounds a lot like a speech President Trump might make, if you take out the word “irregularly” and replace it with the accurate description “illegally.”

It was in January, the day after President Trump’s first travel ban was announced, that Trudeau tweeted “To those fleeing persecution, terror & war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith. Diversity is our strength #WelcomeToCanada.”

Suddenly, after Canadian government statistics showed that illegal crossings from the United States into Canada tripled in July, Canada isn’t as welcoming.

Perhaps it is because Canadians were not happy about his open borders ideas.

Or it might be because reality has set in when he looked at the numbers.

According to the statistics, reported by Reuters, 3,100 people made the journey in July, as opposed to 884 who did it in June.

Nearly all of them went to Quebec, Canada’s French-speaking province, where the refugees were mainly of Haitian origin.

Will all the celebrities who said that America should be more like Canada take back their words and say President Trump was correct?

That would be truly irregular.

Many on social media mocked Trudeau’s inability to say the word “illegally” and his hypocrisy.

Meh... Canada... Meh...

Trudeau's inability to commit to a single line of activity is par for the course, at least as Canadians go.

"Good day, OK? Take off, Hoser. Take off to the great white north, ehh?. It's a beauty way to go."

Take off.

Actually, I meant to call the guy a jackoff but you know how it is- similar words getting mixed up and all.

I'll bet that isn't the only statistic that tripled in July! Douchebags need to understand the consequences of their actions.

Those pesky words, so hurtful and pointed Wink

Kinda like Obama promising to close Guantanamo during the election...gets into the bosses chair and learns there's more to these things than pithy sayings and loud statements.

Sounds like a plan. The US could flood Canada with filth and scum from all of the other third world countries, much like Mexico does to us currently. Let's see how well they could balance the social and economic drains on their society with their morality! Fuck Canada.

Careful what you wish for. We share the longest unguarded border in the world with Canada.

Putting a border "wall" up between the U.S. and Mexico would be a walk in the park compared to securing the U.S./Canada border.

As a Canadian, I didn't want this shit, nor did I want Zoolander as Prime Minister.

I like how Trudeau will shy away from calling them illegal aliens.

At least it's in Quebec, whereas I'm on the west coast.

Not surprisingly, many have tried to move elsewhere in the country. Funny how many economic migrants get called refugees.

Trudeau is starting to sound like a white nationalist. He better watch his statues!
Maybe Soros will bus many loads of Antifa to Canada; Just to "GET" his mind right.

I think we should just step back and watch. Its late August. Those invaders/refugees came from way down south. Canada actually does have a season called winter. Trump needs to beef up the northern border until the sorry lot of them freeze to death. I wonder what crime statistics look like for these past 3 months.

I think the easiest way to guard both borders is with indirect fire. Big Grin

155 artillery has some pretty decent range. You try to cross the border, expect some HE VT on top of you.

This!

Damn drama teacher used Twitter to say "we welcome all" as a slap in the face to Trump. Talk is cheap, but does have consequences, and he didn't realize that maybe, just maybe, people would be listening. So, they start heading up here only to find out Trudeau's tweet doesn't set Canadian Border Policy.
Just like Trump's tweets do not set policy either.

What a dumbass. So tired of relatives in government, and even more upset with those who vote them in.
