Canadian immigration attorneys who have abused the laws for profit.



I'm not sure they have abused the laws. They're working within a Socialist system and the only thing that comes to my mind which would make matters worse would be meddleing from the ACLU.

When Lopez Obrador reappears, someone should remember all this complete nonsense.

How about this for taking asylum to the extremes of absurdity? A Mexican woman seeking asylum in the US because her husband beats her.

http://www.mercurynews.com/news/ci_12845750

Her asylum was turned down by a federal judge and now the Department of Homeland Security -- using the taxpayers' money -- is arguing on her behalf. Do you think that Mexico could take about $100 pesos of the Merida billions the US is giving it and put the guy in jail?

Human interest sht like this makes me sick. The Canadian government has produced an environment that teaches each individual to take-take-take through tax-tax-tax. They no longer have to be concerned because the government will provide, only if they earn.

What is the difference between this plan and the Red Threat Communist ideal that we were taught was God-Hateful and sinful in the past...


Jeezo....I sound like Skeet.

Kneejerk Response


Canadian diplomats slapped with visas
The News

WASHINGTON - Mexico's Foreign Relations secretary Patricia Espinosa announced that Canadian officials and diplomats will be required to obtain visas in advance in response to a new visa requirement for Mexicans visiting Canada..

"Today, we have decided to suspend the agreement that allowed a visa exemption for official and diplomatic passport holders," Espinosa said Thursday in Washington.

Espinosa's announcement came during a meeting with her Canadian counterpart Lawrence Cannon and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

The meeting, called to prepare for a trilateral summit in Guadalajara, Mexico next month, was the first time that Espinosa and Cannon have met since the diplomatic spat over visa requirements arose earlier this week.

Espinosa said Mexico would not apply the new visa requirement to Canadians visiting Mexico as tourists, to ensure Mexico's key tourism industry was not hit by the new rules.

Canada suddenly announced Monday that visitors from Mexico and the Czech Republic would be required to obtain visas before entering the country, in order to curb fraudulent asylum applicants from the two countries.

The decision has so offended Mexico that Espinosa held a bilateral meeting with her Canadian counterpart to discuss the issue on the sidelines of Thursday's trilateral discussions, she said.

"We have made it absolutely clear that we are not in agreement" with the Canadian decision, Espinosa said.

"We're not looking for problems with our allies," said Cannon, who added that the number of false asylum applications has risen.

The Canadian diplomat noted that the decision to require visas had been taken by Immigration.

I guess we ran out of visa things to talk about. Oh well, threads do morph. This one is no exception.

I think you're missing a letter. :rolleyes:

Long gone, so I'm told. Either way they didn't serve Ox or Fox.

Ah yes....I remember all too well. And, since we're running amok with a hijacking, where has Ferna FDT been lately? Havn't seen him posting. Busy, I suppose.
