Find answers to your legal question.





If Canadians were crossing the border to find jobs, would it bother you like it does when Mexicans do it?

Yes it would still bother me. But at least they would speak English, unless they were from Quebec. Then we'd have to shoot them at the border for being quasi-French.

It's been happening for quite some time now. The big difference is that the Canadians do it legally and bring skills with them.


just a mom
It doesn't matter to me which border or from what nationality they come from. If they don't respect our country enough to come here the legal way and be documented and accounted for, then they shouldn't be here at all. Doesn't matter if they are from the south or north or east or west. Just come legally.


James
somewhat if they do it illegally but canadians know english and mexicans dont and mexicans think everyone should speak spanish because they dont want to learn english. but if they were coming over legally than no problem here.

If their doing it illegally, yes

It doesn't bother me that they come over it is that they do it illegally. If they went through the process and did it correctly I would have no problem...as long as they pay taxes and don't commit violent crimes.

Anyone and everyone must follow the proper procedures, including learning the language and culture. That is immigration. Running across the border is not immigration.

If 20 million came over from Canada, demanded rights, health care, jobs and voting rights ... I think I would be pretty pissed off to say the least ....

Canadians seldom move to the USA. They have free universal health care, higher literacy rate, and much less crime.

Oh yeah it would.............

YES!

Like I have said - if someone is in this country ILLEGALLY, no matter where they are from, they need to go home and do it RIGHT!

Are we trying to bring in the race card again?? That is supposed to be in the box with the jokers. . .

The problem with people crossing the boarder from mexico, canada or people getting into this country from any other country is that we can get terrorits sneeking in to!!!


yars232c
you bet, they don't discriminate when they deport. If you think only mexicans are being deported, think again.

Yes, if they are doing it illegally.

The thing is they aren't...at least not number wise.

canadians wouldn't do that - when we are out of a job, we just retreat into the wilderness, kill a moose and tent it for awhile - and O - we would take the beer with us! (don't even THINK of coaxing us down there - we're too smart for that!)


hahahahahahahahahha

It doesn't bother me if they do it legally. Yes it would piss me off if canadians were coming over here without their visa or proper papers. Yes it bothers me when any immigrant comes to the USA and show no respect for the country and want to be given jobs, healthcare, schooling, and all the other privilages and the US citizens are expected to foot the bill for them. We are not all rich and wealthy here either and our taxes continue to go up and up to support not only illeagal immigrants but even some of our own people who are US citizens that just want a hand out. If you really want to work hard and make it in the US then you must do it legally and with the same blood swet and tears we did to get were we are.

When I was growing up in Maine, many French-Canadians from Quebec came in and took lots of jobs. My town became mostly French--some immigrants, some waiting to be naturalized. I don't know if any were illegal, but there was no outcry anywhere from the non-French(my family was not French). Nobody seemed to mind them taking jobs, and nobody minded the language barrier. There were no complaints about cultural clashes, either. The English/Scottish Protestants who were the original settlers didn't seem to mind all the French Roman Catholics coming in, or all the cathedrals and convents being built. It really was a live-and-let-live spirit.


Roadrunner58-79
Damn right it would bother me. Illgels are just that ILLEGALS, I don't care where they came from.


DAR
It is the schools and not being able to speak English, combined, that is the biggest problem, although health care is next.

It would be more as if not just a handful, but 12 to 20 million of us went to Canada to leech off of their much better health system.

We all know that would be stealing.

So why do people make excuses when illegals come here to take our education and health care funds?

No one would even know they were illegal... They blend right in...


jojo
yea


WildThing
No, because the Canadians take a bath daily instead of once a month whether they need it or not.


nepreneaux
If the canadians want to cross, cool, bring poutine or stay out.

It doesn't bother me when Mexicans come over. And it wouldn't bother me if Canadians came, too. Just have them bring some Molson, that's all I ask.
