Now many Canadians view illegal immigration as a problem, when it affects us. Funny how that works. When Trump suggested they would deal with their 11 million illegals accordingly, we had a bunch of Canadian protesters taking to the streets. Now we have many illegal crossing the U.S border into Canada and the tune has changed.
The worst fact is, Canadian know that the RCMP, CSIS and their surrogates aren't capable of handling this danger. They waste millions in overtime chasing rabbits while real threats go unnoticed and cause risks to Canadians and Americans. It's been the Canadian way for decades, all while stabbing allies in the back.
'It's about to blow': Influx of asylum seekers puts strain on small Manitoba community
Greg Janzen, the reeve of Emerson, Man., where dozens of would-be refugee claimants have recently crossed the porous Canada-U.S. border, says some area residents are beginning to express anxiety about the influx.
The small border town of 671 has been galvanized to help asylum seekers, and the issue has certainly put the community on the map, attracting media attention from across the globe. Janzen said he's done 95 television interviews over the last two weeks. Before that he'd only done one, a dozen years ago.
But as the number of asylum seekers continues to surge, it's beginning to put a strain on local resources and raise some security concerns over potential risks to the residents, he said.
"It's starting to get concerning, because the numbers are growing," Janzen said.
So far, the asylum seekers have caused no trouble, and there have been no confrontations. Most residents seem more than happy to help out.
But Janzen said there are worries that someone, possibly with a criminal background, might be able to sneak in among the asylum seekers and into their community.
"I'm scared, the bigger the numbers — if we don't have enough officials, someone is going to slip through the crack because there's so many people to process."
