They Flock To Our Shores But....

We need to take control of our own immigration policies. I get sick of how the lawyers are making money off of the desperate people who come here illegally. They drag the process into years, sometimes an illegal immigrant can stay here for over 10 years. This is totally unacceptable. We need to get the lawyers and judges out of the process and appoint a board of legal immigrants and Canadian born citizens who can judge the cases. It should take months, not years and the boards ruling should be final, no appeals to our courts allowed.

Remember the first boat of 76 illegal Tamils that reached our shores? They are all still here, and the prosecutors are blaming the RCMP. The RCMP should have been able to put those 76 ILLEGAL refugees on the next flight out of Canada without any investigation at all. Send them back. We have a huge waiting list of immigrants who want to enter Canada legally, they should get priority. 

The memo explains why, more than a year-and-a-half after the Ocean Lady was seized off Vancouver Island, no criminal charges have yet been laid in connection with the human smuggling operation, which began in Indonesia and Thailand. Although it stands to reason that at least some of those on board would have been involved, all are living freely around Toronto.

 It's been a year and a half, no one has been sent back, and we also have another 492 Tamil refugees that arrived on another boat, and they are all in Toronto now too, none of them have been sent back either. The bleeding heart lefties think this is okay, and even more refugees should be allowed into our country.

Here is a solution. While the illegal refugees are waiting up to ten years for our court system to come to a decision, they are restricted to living in our far northern regions. No going to Toronto, Vancouver, or Edmonton. You get off the boat, you go to Nunavut or the Yukon to await the decision of the courts. If you can enjoy the north in winter, you are probably a perfect candidate for Canadian citizenship.

For those lefties who think that family reunification is the most important immigration strategy, I agree as long as the sponsoring family takes on all the medical bills and does not rely on our "free" health care and the elders get no government cheques. If the family wants to pay, no problem. If the family wants Canadian taxpayers to pay, nope not happening.

Canada needs immigrants, what we don't need are ambulance chasing lawyers holding up the process for real candidates to suck more money out of them. Illegal immigrants should not be allowed on our shores, they take spots away from immigrants who are law abiding and wait for years to get their applications accepted. Legal immigrants don't need the services of lawyers. Illegal refugees are a big money making machine for lawyers, just like all the poverty "non-profit" organizations who feed off of the poor while making rich salaries (think Red Cross CEO's). Layton likes to appear to be for the weakest in our society, yet his party gets the support from unions who make very rich salaries and cripple industry with their unrealistic demands. Layton and Olivia even out spent our PM last year!

Immigration is great, but let's be careful about who we let in and how they get here.

Helping Gays and Christians

First off, I think this is a good initiative as long as we are really helping those who are at risk.

Ottawa has pledged $100,000 to support persecuted gay and lesbian refugees who flee to Canada.

Immigration Minister Jason Kenney announced Thursday that the funding will launch a pilot project in partnership with the Rainbow Refugee Committee, a Vancouver-based group that helps persecuted gay, lesbian, transgendered and bisexual people make refugee claims.

Saving those who are threatened with death is a good thing. Now I want those Christians who are being threatened to also get help.

Thousands of Christians have been forced to flee their homes in Western Ethiopia after Muslim extremists set fire to roughly 50 churches and dozens of Christian homes.

At least one Christian has been killed, many more have been injured and anywhere from 3,000 to 10,000 have been displaced in the attacks that began March 2 after a Christian in the community of Asendabo was accused of desecrating the Koran.

Why can't these Christians be allowed to get the same protection from our government as gays? Both groups are in danger, both groups need to be given refugee status in Canada.

It will not happen as long as we have idiots like this:

“I want to shoot everyone in this room,” a McGill University student recently announced using his online Twitter feed, claiming he had surreptitiously “infiltrated” what was in fact an open film screening of Indoctrinate U, hosted by Conservative McGill and Libertarian McGill. “I should have brought an M16,” read another of his messages. In short toxic tweets, the student called the conservative gathering “a Zionist meeting” and a “Satanist ritual,” while sprinkling in insults about Jews.

Yikes, we have a serious nut case here, but I bet that they will be coddled and hugged by the "progressives".

I do not want more boat loads of illegal immigrants showing up on our shores. We have enough "real" refugees to deal with, let alone illegal cue jumpers, who are not really refugees. Canada has opened it's doors to all who want to come here for a better life. It's time for us to stop taking in the drug dealers and unemployable ingrates.

Funny how the left will help gays but bitterly oppose any help for Christians in Muslim countries. Why are those on the left so scared of Christians but supportive of Muslims who stone women to death? It continues to puzzle me because the Liberals are trying to portray themselves as the family guys, while the lefty feminists ignore the human rights of women in Arab countries.

I think both gays and Christians need Canada's protection.

Obama Do Your Job!

The socialists are using everything they can to make Arizona's law look like racial profiling, when in fact it is a law that mirrors the federal law. I wonder why the Obama administration would be demonizing the Arizona law? Apologizing to China for Arizona, letting Mexico's President demonize Arizona, letting California boycott Arizona, what is the point, what is the goal? When 70% of the American people support the Arizona law, what does Obama have to gain?

The Governor of Arizona speaks out. Obama do your job.

What does Obama have to gain? The votes of the illegals. So, to stay in power the Democrats are going to bribe the illegals with amnesty. Nice for the illegals, not so nice for the hard working taxpayers.

Special interest groups appear to have all the power. They don't, because the silent majority is watching, they are processing the information, and it is looking bleak for the "progressives" in November.

Because Of Illegal Immigrants...

Being a non-hyphenated Canadian, I get ticked off at immigrants who expect us to bend our rules to accommodate their culture. This can be worked out if everyone comes to the table with a love of Canada. Illegal immigrants are breaking the law, and should get no sympathy from Canadians, hyphenated or not. But this debate is getting carried to the next level in the US, and it is not pretty or fair to anyone anymore.

Tonight was a great indication of what is happening in the US. My husband was watching the Lakers game in Spanish! Seriously, he pointed it out to me, and I couldn't believe it, about five minutes later, the station fuzzed over, and then it came back in English. Was this done on purpose by the station, or was it just a broadcasting error?

What is apparent, is that progressives are pitting Americans against Americans, because of illegal immigrants. California is boycotting Arizona because of illegal immigrants, and Arizona is talking about California not getting power or water from them anymore, because of illegal immigrants. It reminds me of Quebec bashing Alberta for our oil sands and then grabbing the equalization money in their grubby hands, still yelling about how they deserve more for doing nothing.

The progressives tell us that the Arizona law will lead to racial profiling. The Arizona law clearly states that can't happen, it is modeled from the federal law, so why the outrage against this bill? Obama bashing his own people to China and Mexico, is a perfect representation of progressives. They really don't like America.

So how do Americans feel about the new law?

An Arizona utilities official is threatening to switch off the electricity the state sends to Los Angeles in response to the city council's vote to boycott the state in protest of its new illegal immigration law. Do you agree with the fight-boycott-with-boycott response?

Maybe the progressives need to go back to the basement and rethink their plan.

Goodbye America The Strong.

Sadly America has lost it's way and is now lost. It's not just about the health bill that has been passed, although it is going to be a huge problem for Americans. I am very sad about what is happening to the great nation next door to us.

House Passes Health Care Bill

BREAKING NEWS - In a victory for President Barack Obama, the Democratic-controlled House narrowly passed landmark health care legislation Saturday night to expand coverage to tens of millions who lack it and place tough new restrictions on the insurance industry. Republican opposition was nearly unanimous.

One Republican voted for the bill. All I can say is welcome to a socialist medical program like Canada. Get ready to wait in long lineups for any procedure and to pay for everyone with a sniffle. You will pay, they will not.

Health care is only one aspect of the decline of America, the other is how the murderer, Major Nidal Hasan has been portrayed in the media. They just can't seem to say TERRORIST. Let me help them, the guy is a TERRORIST! How else to you describe 13 dead and over 30 injured? Or will MURDERER make everyone feel better?

Look, the guy emptied out his apartment, bought some guns, and jumped on a table to better shoot his victims in the back, what do you want to call him? Lefties will probably call him a "freedom fighter", after all he was scheduled to go over to Iraq and he didn't agree with either the Iraq or Afghanistan wars. Poor baby, maybe he should have headed to Canada where our lefties would have welcomed him with open arms as a "draft dodger"...oops they don't have the draft anymore. Welcome him as a refugee I guess, seeing as America is such a bad place to live that everyone wants to live there.

The guy is nuts. I had one date with a budding psychologist during my university days, he was also nuts. He kept phoning me and telling me I was nuts not to go out with him again. I swear they go into psychology to help cure themselves.

Political correctness is killing democracy. You can not say anything against a minority group without being slammed about being racist. If I was to say that the 70+ Tamils who arrived on a boat should just be sent back, I'm going to be labeled as a racist. How about stating that Islam treats women like slaves? That might get you slapped down by your MP. It's not very politically correct to slam any minority about anything they might do, and that gives them more power than the average Canadian. They are busy abusing that power, remember Levant's problems with a minority person? Why should that person have more power than a Canadian, just because they are a minority?

I am sick and tired of supporting illegal immigrants who think that Canada is meant to be milked for all we have. I am tired of being politically correct. Let me give you an example.

I foster dogs who might go to a blind person. Don't let this shock you, but all blind people are not necessarily nice. Some of them are quite abusive to the dogs. Just because you are blind does not mean that you are a good person. Just because you are are Muslim or Christian doesn't mean that you are a good person. Why can't we state that without being called racist? It is because of the lefty philosophy that minority votes win them power. They could care less if a person is white, black or purple as long as they vote for them. The way they get the votes is to encourage division. East/West, rural/urban, French/English, anything that might win them votes. Sad really.

America is in trouble, only Americans can fix it. I hope they get it right next election.
