You might want to Google translate these articles about a haitian migrant who died trying to cross back into the US last december 23rd, and froze to death. He had crossed Roxham road with his wife and children into Canada a couple of years ago, and his wife had decided to go back to stay with family members in Florida, while he tried to eke out a living, but couldn't find work. That is when he also left to cross back into the US, but his timing proved fatal.

I read somewhere that they had left Haiti years ago for Brazil and walked their way up to the Mexico-US border, like so many others. Tragic.

So sorry, sounds difficult and sad.

Adams giving tickets shows that liberals favor immigration in theory; not in practice.

Canadian immigration official "surprised" NYC mayor is sending migrants to Canada

Quebec immigration minister Christine Fréchette called on her nation to crack down on an unofficial border crossing south of Montreal that migrants are entering from New York after being transported there by Adams’ program, the BBC reports.

Fréchette also urged Canadian officials to speed up talks in renegotiating the Safe Third Country Agreement, which requires migrants to make an asylum claim in the first country they enter.

Frechette told reporters that there is a need to solve the problem of Roxham Road. That refers to the unofficial border site between New York and Montreal where the migrants are told to enter Canada. This area sees tens of thousands of migrants illegally crossing every year. Nearly 4,700 people entered Canada through the site last December alone.

It's not working! *LOL*

Number of these so called "migrants" are dragging their a$$es right back to NYC.

It seems they found out Canada is not the soft touch USA/New York City is so they're heading back to get on that gravy train.

It should be a condition that if NYC pays for their bus ticket to Canada, they can't return to claim benefits again in this city.

Well, they're coming back. Some migrants bused to Canada already heading back to NYC.

https://nypost.com/2023/02/08/migran...g-back-to-nyc/

"Despite the free ride, Thielmann said migrants are getting frustrated with conditions and opting to return to New York City, where shelters and services have been strained by 43,000 asylum seekers in the past year.

Colombian native Jose Liandro, 37, crossed into Canada last week but told the Post via text after settling at a Hampton Inn and Suites hotel on the outskirts of Montreal he wanted to return to the US.

Biden migrant crisis to cost NYC $4.2B, more than twice what mayor warned Asked why, Liandro replied, “Mucha nieve,” Spanish for, “Lots of snow.” "

Snow is one thing the migrants can disagree on, dump on our snow all they like.

But the ultimate test is the “Sandwich Test". We won’t let anybody disapprove our smoked meat sammiches or Montreal bagels. We’ll throw you in the brig for a lot less.
