CBC: Keep a 'wary eye' on U.S. travel visas, Goodale tells American counterpart
Ralph Goodale says some migrants are obtaining U.S. travel visas for the sole purpose of coming to Canada.
Canada's Public Safety Minister has told his American counter part to keep a "wary eye" on the travel visas it issues to the United States.
In an interview Sunday with CBC News, Goodale said Canadian officials have identified trends where documents issued from certain U.S. embassies and consulates are being misused.
"We have asked them to go back upstream and examine the pattern of these travel documents being issued and how come the people to whom they were issued appear to have had no intention of staying in the United States, but were simply using the documents as vehicles to get into the United States and then make a bee-line for the Canadian border," Goodale explained.

WNU Editor: For those who may not know .... I live in Montreal, Quebec. This story has building up since the beginning of the year .... Canada Is Becoming A Destination Of Choice For Migrants (February 11, 2017) .... and when Prime Minister Trudeau openly invited people to migrate to Canada (see link here), what did he really expect? And even thought the majority of Canadians want these illegal border crossers deported .... Half Of Canadians Want Illegal Border Crossers Deported (March 20, 2017) .... contrary to what the government and much of what the media is saying, these asylum requests are being rubber stamped .... Canada granting asylum to U.S. border crossers at higher rates: data (Reuters). So why blame the U.S.? The Canadian government's immigration policy is strongly opposed in the french province of Quebec that is also a political stronghold for Justin Trudeau's political party, but the Canadian government wants this policy to be implemented. So blame the U.S. for this migrant surge .... even though it is their policies that are encouraging it.

"So why blame the US?" Very simple. It's easy, hugely profitable, scores positive points politically, and it costs nothing. As such, a better question is why not blame the US?
Just keep the tone civil. After all the uS does have nukes.
The immigrants as following a cost-benefit analysis.
The immigrants think the benefits outweigh the cost of getting caught or deported if they go to Canada instead of the U.S.
Just like Canada wants to talk a good game about defense, they talk smack about being humanitarianism and accepting all immigrants legal or illegal, rich or poor.
Now that the bill is coming due, they are crying like little _______.
It was all fun and games when the U.S. was the destination of choice. Now that it is Canada ...
PS we would not use nukes. Maybe we would use a honeypot spy against the PM. Did the apple fall far from the tree?
Is that Bob Huntley holding up the sign reading "Refugees Welcome"?
I hope he likes his taxes going up.
we could make his taxes triple, quadruple or more.
It would be 'simples'. We copy Mexican law. We give all illegal immigrants 3 weeks to cross America and reach Canada. We could get 100 million Chinese in Canada within a year.

PS kid killer lover. "We" meaning you and your country have been using nuclear weapons derivatives in the mid East for some time with expected results.
