    Candian here.

    Do not come north.

    We cannot house and feed you. Most of you will die of exposure the first winter you are here.

    If you have thoughts of coming here with guns and taking our homes or food by force know that most of us outside the cities are armed, we’re just not so scared that we constantly show off our guns and feel no need to go prepared for combat to buy donuts or groceries.

    So, Mexico is your best bet, if they will take you. I bet you’ll be glad that all the talk of a border wall was just neo-fascist virtue signaling.

        Yeah. Also, clearly doesn’t understand what is going on (TBF, I don’t know shit about Canadian politics either), but the stupid violent people with guns will be overjoyed if trump is the president.

        I simply pointed out the reality of the situatuation. Canada can’t take in millions of American refugees fleeing a christofascist authoritarian regime.

            Ok. Explain to me how a country of 40 million people that doesn’t have sufficient housing for the people who are here now can house millions of political refugees from the US before winter hits and they all freeze to death?

            Keep in mind we’re not talking about gradual immigration. We’re talking a wave of potentially millions of refugees fleeing a christofascist dictatorship or civil war.

            Your insults are very childish. Do better.

        You’re well north of the south most point in Canada. You’re practically Canadian. We just don’t have enough housing up here to take in a bunch of refugees. If Americans end up in tent city refugee camps they will die in winter. We could put a few tens of thousands in school gymnasiums and community centers but it would turn into a humanitarian disaster.
