I take it the airfare to Canada is less than what these illegals pay coyotes to get them across the border, eh? And if they can afford to make it to Canada, why bother coming into the US? Trudeau has told them they're welcomed in Canada and will get the necessary services to get them on their feet. So if they're welcomed in Canada, why the hell are they coming to the US where they're not welcomed?
ReplyDeleteI don;t get how that works coming from Canada. Maybe these were Mexicans that went all the way up to Canada and decided to go back South?
