Perhaps you haven't noticed, but Canada pretty much has an open door policy
letting in anyone who wants to come here. You claim refugee status and then
you're permitted to leave your entry point unescorted, unmonitored. The
substantial number of those people never come back to finish being
processed. It's during that processing period many known terrorists are
identitfied and by then it's too late. They've disappeared into the fabric
of our country. Canada is home to a substantial number of terrorist groups
and I hope knowing that makes you feel comfortable.
Where there is a will there is a way, and yes they would have found another
way into the US - but Canada makes it far too easy for that sort of thing to
happen. That's why the US needs to slap Canada's parliment upside the head
for its immigration policies.
Simply put, this is my last public post on this topic. I won't discuss it
again. Groupstudy isn't meant for this type of discussion, but I think it's
important that people in the US know about what goes on in the country that
borders them to the north. The Canadian public has tried for years to get
immigration policies tightened, unsuccessfully. Perhaps the Americans can
help.
And finally, your comments weren't very appropriate for this type of list.
Such behavior doesn't really reflect well on Canadians, now does it.
