President Trump announced that he would not extend the seventeen-year-long “temporary protected status” for Salvadoran refugees, essentially ordering them to return home within 18 months. But as many on the left decry Trump for not extending the protections, Canada has been very quick to dissuade the 200,000 Salvadorans affected from coming up north. The Canadian government sent a Spanish-speaking member of Parliament to California, to make a media tour actively discouraging any migration. "Canada has a robust and structured immigration system that must be respected," explained Canadian MP Pablo Rodriguez. "Before leaving your job, pulling your child from school and selling your house to come to Canada, make sure you understand the rules and the laws. Because if you don't fill these criteria, chances are you'll be returned, not to the U.S. but to your native country." Canada took a similar tack when Trump removed a protected status from Haitian refugees. Canada’s refusal to welcome refugees leaving the United States comes as a stark contrast to the words put forth by their left-leaning Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last year. As Trump announced his refugee ban on visitors and immigrants from seven Muslim-majority countries, Trudeau wrote a widely circulated op-ed, saying, "To those fleeing persecution, terror and war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith. Diversity is our strength.” However, despite Trudeau’s big words, it’s clear that his government has repeatedly been unwilling to put their money where their mouth is once the reality of the situation becomes apparent. http://americanactionnews.com/...nts-kicked-out-of-us | ||

Trudeau's tweet last year is what caused the mass migration toward Canada in response to the protected status lifting (Canada removed similar protections 2 years prior, but you don't hear anything about that, do you?). Rhetoric seems to be the only thing politicians know how to use anymore, and JTs main concern is the perception of Canada in the world. "Diversity is our strength" is such a bullshit term, not proven in any way. I'd say there is more evidence of the contrary....but that's racist.

they're Canadians - they think they're morally superior to everyone else (and I am a Canadian so don't flame out over this) - they always have bad things to say about Americans as if they hold the moral compass of the universe and Trudeau - he's the Canadian version of Obama - a smug, narcissistic little bastard who should go back to teaching preschool coloring [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

thank you - no offense to my Canadian friends on this board as they're not the 'usual' Canadians I run into Christmas was a bust this year because my entire family wanted to talk about nothing but Trump and how evil and racist he is I kept asking which policy of his they didn't like, and it always reverted back to personality and style over substance I love my family but its getting harder and harder to be around them for more than 10 minutes [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

America, the great melting pot! I love it when someone trots out this argument... Fine. I have no problem with that, in theory. Problem is, these people don't want to melt. Endeavor to persevere. | |||

the canadians pride themselves on being so informed about the US because they read the NYT or LA Times. The US mass media has distorted what they think they know. | |||

THAT.....is the issue I have with these leeches being here illegally. And even legally, if one doesn't contribute to our society. Spot on, cparktd!!! "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

The problem with a melting pot is that the scum always rises to the top. | |||

| Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do. |
Why would want to punish those poor little children? Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking. | |||

Maybe your family would consider adopting my SIL. The depth of derangement is downright disturbing. | |||

Respect for an immigration system....now, there's an idea. | |||

So Canada sent their token Hispanic MP to California to discourage other Hispanics to stay away. How very hypocritical. As long as he got his, right? | |||

Hey, if the Canadians catch these illegal Salvadorans coming from the US, will they deport them back to El Salvador? Took a tour through the Canadian Rockies. Nice people, polite, but the dislike of Americans was very strong. “ The work of destruction is quick, easy and exhilarating; the work of creation is slow, laborious and dull. | |||
