Sounds amazing enough to never come back. Let's hope it is!

Come back to Canada? I go back regularly, but mostly just to watch hockey.

Well even if we do that, we still have a huge backlog of cases, and the longer we let them stay the harder it will be to deport them. Biden has instituted a number of steps to deter false asylum seeking.

More judges could also mean more deportations. You don't know that letting them sit backlogged for 5+ years reduces the numbers of asylum seekers. The longer they have to wait to hear their case the less likely they are to be deported and the more likely they are to commit a crime if they are cri

you can deport all asylum seekers and let them wait for the answer outside the country as it has been the norm for decades and as Obama did as well.

you can automatically refuse asylum for any illegal, and answer claims from outside while they wait patiently in another safe country, as it happened forever until Biden arrived.

Oh so you're a dual citizen who used to live in Canada but now you're back

Just interested in the difference in perception.

I’m first generation American but I never take personal offense at the Republican talking points about immigrants and their children because I know they aren’t talking about me. Children of European immigrants are never placed under similar scrutiny.

educated and rich people are welcomed by the vast majority of republicans, regardless of ethnicity and country of origin, and you know that fairly well.

it just happens that THESE DAYS basically all European immigrants are high quality people, when that wasn't the case there was (reasonably) enormous opposition to mass unfiltered immigration even from Europe.

but anyway the point was and is that coordie can't use Asians being spectacularly successful to justify taking in as many low education unfiltered central American as Biden and Harris can find

I don't know what back means to you. I was born in Calgary, went to school in Calgary and Edmonton, went to the USA on an H1B to work in the medical field, employer extended it, I applied for citizenship and still live in the USA. I go back to Calgary to visit family and catch a hockey game from time to time. Hope that clears it up?

why did Trump have to institute a “remain in Mexico” policy if that was always the policy? lol


by Luciom k

per capita GDP was growing more when immigration was more restricted and filtered in the USA

Per Capita is a meaningless statistic

by Luciom k

second generation immigrants from central America do not earn higher income than American white natives.

you guys keep using immigrant stats inflated by exceptional Asians to justify central American immigration, it's truly a scam

Wrong.

Here, this might help.

That tweet is showing numbers of immigrants that were released back into Mexico. A cursory glance at the ICE report (the source for the tweet) would show you that you are being blatantly lied to by people who assume you are a stupid ****ing idiot and would never check their work. Are they right?

Bye bye Kamala...

You leaving?

Haha this forum is comedic gold.

I said immigration in general is our secret sauce, but yes that include illegal immigrants

if you have the best steak house in the world but serve terrible salads, you can't claim your whole menu is the best in the world, nor justify the bad quality salad through the high quality steaks

per Capita GDP growth is what makes you and your family live better, not total GDP.

if you annex India your GDP grows but given you are going to transfer them a lot of money in perpetuity after annexation, the quality of life of all Americans would decrease significantly.

source your claim about second generation central Americans earning more than American white natives

Small world.

Does it include near 90% European immigration from 1776-1965?

why did you move to a country that is far to the right of your political preferences coming from one which seems to be more or less where you are at politically?

better economic and professional opportunities?

didn't it come to you that those opportunities exist exactly only because the country is to the right of your original one?

It probably doesn't occur to him. He's also the reason why Canada's health care system is so strained: doctors, nurses and other medical professionals leveraging relatively cheap education to escape low salaries and insanely high taxes and live off our tit. And now he takes his smug Canadian sensibilities and spouts off like he knows better when he's here.

I say keep the Mexicans, and deport every last one these ****ing Canadians. I've never met one I liked.

And if you have a tax haven and attract a lot of rich people your per capita GDP goes up for very marginal benefit to the average person.

And if per capita gdp goes down but the price of goods and services goes down because of a more competitive labor market this is also a good thing.

Quantitative in economics only gets you so far.

He’s an American citizen, he can’t be deported.

Basically impossible since immigrants become more "white" over time.


As for annexing India, we aren't annexing Central America. They come to America and produce American value. Americans aren't subsidizing anything


For those that can't read, I literally answered why I came to the USA in my previous post. To work in the field I was interested in at a research facility that specializes in it. And I've added yet another absolutely worthless poster to my ignore list.


Luciom will return to us 2 weeks. He can’t respond.

Neither can illegal immigrants, at least by the current administration.

Yeah, clearly Monaco is the ideal set up for a country of 350 million

For someone who came in guns blazing on this forum falsely whining about logical fallacies you sure do use a lot of them. This isn’t twitter, you’re not performing for the MAGA hivemind. No updoots to be found here.
