There should be no exceptions. If they can’t abide by our immigration laws, they should remain in their countries of origin, including Canadians. If they consider our immigration laws irrelevant, they will also circumvent other “inconvenient” laws.

The third world is..well..the third world.
This country is run by fools and ideologues. Our legal immigration system was changed to the present system by democraic politicians because the US was becoming too Republican. Importing poverty and the chain migration of 3rd worlders more likely to be democratic voters illustrates my point. The US needs to go to a merit system in which prospective immigrants are chosen based on skills that the immigrants possess that would be benificial to the US, that would make the US a better country, not for any reasons that the prospective immigrants want. Most 1st world immigrants would have priority in such a system. These are the people that could make the US great again. Bye bye poverty reject 3rd world future democratic voters.

Very sad, but very true.

I agree with the merit system

Of course illegal is illegal. But with all due respect AB, what damage do illegal Canadians do to the US, other than being way too liberal usually, compared to welfare sucking illegal Mexicans?

Because the mere presence of any illegals (even 'high quality' ones) is a slap in the face of the USA----------and, tacitly encourages others to try to hop the border. Think of the camel (illegal aliens) with his nose under the tent (USA sovereignty).

I'm not arguing with you and see your point. Still....who is bankrupting Mexifornia and the other sactuary states, illegal welfare sucking Mexicans OR illegal Canadians?

Canadians should wait until there are 20 plus million illegal welfare sucking Americans invading Canada and then deport the hell out of them.

LOL! Well said. Personally I have a hate/love relationship with Canada right now. And, OMG you guys are soooo right about Canadians shockingly strange obsession with donuts! Especially Tim Hortons. Didn't an Ameriacan company buy them out a few years ago?
