The U.S.-Canada boundary is the longest international border in the world at 5,525 miles long. Walker said that "building a wall along the country's norther border with Canada is a legitimate issue that merits further review."

Its not that the idea doesn't merit review, but, rather, that any rational review should conclude that the idea is ultimately ridiculous and unnecessary. The problem of illegal immigrants coming into the country, which poses a security threat and costs this country a lot of money in terms of welfare, education, and incarceration fees, overwhelming is a southern border issue. That's because its easier to get into Mexico (or one of the countries to Mexico's south) than it is to get into Canada; not to mention Canada is more stable and developed than Mexico, which decreases the need/desire for Canadians to cross over and remain here.
If Walker would ever be elected president, he would need to build this wall to keep us in!
