And as usual; what part are you taking issue with; the part where it's completely factual and non-debatably true or the part it comes from a source other than one you approve of?

I’m simply observant, and have taken note over the years of your rather frequent (and detailed) opining here on America and American policy. I’ve also taken note of the immediacy of your ire when the reverse occurs, and any Americans dare speak a critical opinion on Canada in return (healthcare, anyone?)

You seem to be quite comfortable both espousing your opinion on America, and telling others why they aren’t qualified to do the same of Canada. Look at you here “schooling” us Yanks on our Southern border crisis. You’re shameless in your arrogance.

Changed your name have you Nor Cal?


While not answering my query; why would I have shame in doing something your brethren do with abandon every time they can use Canada as a bashing stick on topics ranging from healthcare to NATO membership, not to mention your own President making it "legal" by accusing us of everything from being a bad neighbour to a security risk.

Don't like it...I encourage you to use the ignore feature. That's specifically what it's designed for.

Good for you.

Now when are you going to address the content of my post?

Why do you feel entitled to a response? You’re Canadian. Totally irrelevant to the issue at hand. Your opinion means nothing.

Besides, I’m still laughing at your fantasy of men driving ladder-filled trucks through the Chihuahua desert here. OK!

Martial law is entirely Constitutional at the border. People crossing the border illegally can be shot and killed, and it's all perfectly Constitutional.

His state enjoyed a huge benefit from all that cheaper-than-dirt labour.
Certain individuals enjoyed personal economic benefits. but the state as a whole suffered a great detriment. Low-skilled labor consumes more than it produces, and the subsidy of illegal labor comes from the legal residents.

I understand that completely, but, those who benefitted will continue to do so when, NOT If, the next illegal shows up looking for work under the table.

Well then, once again, if my worthless opinion does not warrant your response, feel free to ignore it completely...….


The topic is still the threatened closure of the border...
