BTW, Canada takes in more refugees, not per captia, but in REAL numbers, than the USA does. We walk the talk. We care about human beings, and do what we can to help them. Especially children.
Things are different in Canada - it's managed and staged. Canada also has very restrictive rules. You have a ptrivate sponsorship refugee program Canada is not letting people in willy nilly.

Hm. Wonder why. (I actually don't wonder why, it's because the Republicans want cheap labor).
Another lie from ClaraC….as usual

1) Trump tried to end DACA but the SCOTUS ruled it against his favor
2) Under Biden Administration, CBP and ICE are discouraged from deport illegal aliens just because they are here illegally….unless they pose a threat to public safety or national security


But go ahead and keep on lying

Thats the problem right there. The job of our schools is not to make "the World" a better place. it is to make America a Better Place. That is really the crux of the dispute with people on the left such as yourself and people who lean right. America First doesn't mean we say to hell with the rest of the World but that we make sure Americans are taken care of before we go to try to help our neighbors. What we are doing now is like some Parent who makes sandwiches and brings them down to feed people homeless in the park. It's something very laudable about that and most of us wish we did such good things. Than we find out that Parent had 3 kids at home they left to fend for themselves for food with nothing in the Pantry...

Let the "the world" take care of their own.

Amazing, that you're OK damaging American kids' education. If citizens of other countries are so important to you, you should head down to their country and work to improve conditions there.

Taxpayers fund public edu.

Flood of illegals waiting 8 years for court date

Taxpayers now have to pay for illegals, most who may not be allowed to stay.

even if they are allowed to stay, the burden on taxpayers is overwhelming.

Which fear is greater the Educators/Dems or the taxpayers burdened by biden's destructive policies, gas prices and inflation?

Dem's plan to destabilze society working perfectly, by pitting taxpayers against educators against illegal aliens, against charges of racism and hate for brown people.

What do Republicans win in 2022????

they win an irreparable disaster. The dems lose the 2022 elections and win the destruction of America. The hapless repubs w/o Trump will be a disaster that plays into demosocialist hands as we watch america go down in flames.

EU and US accused Belarus (an important ally of Russia) of sending middle eastern war refugees into Poland to destabilize Poland and the rest of EU

Yet, over here President Ice Cream is doing the same to his own country via southern land border.

You say let's damage kids' education.

Have you seen the curriculum for our kids? Critical Race Theory... Confused Gender Theory... Math is racist...

I think that train has left the station already.

How many illegal aliens are there in Canada, btw?
Fewer than here, because Canada only has 2 borders, one with the US and one with France, and it's much harder to get to Canada than the US. That's simple geography.

And, do you really want local school officials trying to enforce Federal immigration law? The school officials for sure do not want to do that.

My kid spent 12 years in Houston ISD. I never say any CRT or confused gender in the curriculum. Nor did any teacher accuse math of being racist. What I did see was dedicated professionals trying their best to teach kids, despite the best efforts of the State Legislature to underfund schools and make teacher's lives impossible.

Can you explain why so many of them pass through other countries where these threats don't exist and make a bee-line toward the US?
