But I thought Canada welcomed everyone, unlike us crazies the US. \n\nSo they actually enforce their laws, who would have thought??!?

Most of these comments are disgusting! He went into Canada to seek asylum because he knew that he wouldn't be granted asylum with Trump in office in the USA. He is doing it the legal way filling out the paperwork to seek asylum. Unless you're Native American, your ancestors were once immigrants! And not all of them came legally either! El Salvador has a lot of political instability, there is a lot of crime and murders constantly happening. He has a good reason to escape that as anyone would. I'm shocked how much none of you have a heart, it's really sad. That's why the world is the way it is today. God help us all!

my heart breaks for all the Latin American people who wish to come to the US or Canada for a better life. ???

Wow that was sleazy of Trudeau to do! He first tweets a welcome to everyone, then back-peddles. It's almost as if he planned it that way with Trump. Scare a bunch of people to go to Canada who may not have otherwise checked in in the US, only to deport them. Makes no sense if that court program in the US had a success rate of over 95% of people showing up to immigration court. I feel lucky to have been born where I've been born. If it weren't for WWII, I wouldn't even exist here, as me.

The truth is Canada,like many other countries needs migrants, because contraception and abortion are reducing the population. As long as people from other countries settle in Canada the unspoken , unreported drop in the population goes unnoticed.\nPregnancy is a gift from God - not a disease to be blocked and manipulated. Come Lord Jesus fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in us the fire of the Holy Spirit. . . Amen . . . . . Amen ?

I was arrested with extreme prejudice and ordered deported from Canada. The RCMP is a branch of the military, and did this. Only problem for them was the fact I was born in Canada. I am now a political asyli in the US, and it was the Canadian authorities own police reports that made my claim valid.

Goes to Canada, spends US dollars he earned here, ain't that great for the economy..

LMAOOO the US wasn’t good enough for this guy? Liberal media continues to make Canada seem more accepting than the US but they deal with it the same way

The balls of this guy!!! He breaks US laws and then breaks Canada’s laws, and the bad guy here is? According to him Canada and the US...

LIARS AND HYPOCRITES! Canadian leaders AND its citizens that criticize the US President and American people that voted for him. SO Canada is a NATION OF LAWS! . Hah!!!!

Tried to bring my Central American Wife of 15 years, my 9 year old daughter, and my 20 year old stepdaughter {university scholarship} to Canada. Tried for 3 years when I went back to Canada to give us a better future. Now back in Central America with my family. Poor, but together. Too bad they were from a decent country and not a shithole so they could claim refugee status. Or Muslim.

So now Canada is being two-faced. Tried to make the US President look bad. Canada is doing exactly what the US is doing, what Canada is a Hater too?

He feels like he's not wanted in 2 countries. That's because he isn't wanted in 2 countries illegally. He entered the US illegally, and entered Canada under false refugee pretenses. You know the country where he is welcome, where he came from originally.

Why don't these people vote in a candidate like Trump in their own countries? So their own economies will do well and the police will fight crime. Instead of fleeing to the US and Canada and voting in politicians similar to the ones who ruined the countries they came from.

If that caravan reaches US soil...I have no doubt they will go straight towards Canada ?‍♂️ then they will try to change our culture history and the housing market will suffer. Please protect our own citizens before others!!! Don’t get me wrong, I have a co-worker who came here in Canada legally and paid so much money to work here legally. No problem with that as he is contributing to our society and pays taxes. However this caravan marching towards US and most likely continue north will 100% drain our resources! First we need to provide shelter, food, clothing and expenses to live day by day. Let’s take on our own citizens’ homelessness issues (tent cities) first before welcoming those who just decides to invade other countries just because their country can’t provide...

Why don't all the nations like US and Canada try to help fix what is happening from the places these people are fleeing, especially if they are murder capitals? They can recruit these migrants to form coalitions to rebuild their nation. What if they are really are going to suffer there, without outside intervention, by being recruited, instead, into gangs or be killed or raped? If we send troops to the middle east for our vested interest, then don't we also have at least some vested interest to send troops in Honduras and El Salvador? We can prevent the entire population from migrating, prevent people from being exploited and hurt while traveling or living illegally and the taxpayers and citizens won't have to pay for court costs, education, healthcare and welfare. There are plenty of things our nation can do to uplift our own destitute and out of luck an alone citizens...with that money. With the money now saved, it can be diverted to cover the costs of our troops, counselors, educators in those nations. Then it is possible and foreseeable to reunite all the undocumented immigrants back to their now safer home countries. I understand why they flee and also understand why the US and Canada cannot absorb these large population of people, and they have the right to determine who is invited in, so....why can't there be more permanent solutions? I feel, certain pathetic political groups are playing these migrants, the law-abiding citizens and others in their game of chess. Lives are not pawns for chess. Is there a hidden path for drugs, money, prostitution that is being quietly supported? Are certain businesses lobbying in the millions and billions to get cheap labor? Is that why this problem is not finally being solved but kept alive for so many years? There are basic solutions that have not been tried in earnest. You cannot just bring everyone in and you cannot just turn your face to the problems these undocumented people face... I feel like much is not being discussed about this situation....Something else is going on that they are not covering...

Guys, please apply legally... it's ridiculous! Also, make sure to read US vs Canada: https://immigrationcanadatips.com/2018/10/25/should-you-immigrate-to-canada-or-the-united-states-of-america-pros-and-cons/

In 20 years when the US and Canada a trashed they will start going North to Russia.

Im against illegal immigration but I see a lot of racism in the comments! Poor people in the US and Canada are lazy and that's why they are poor! They don't want to do hard work although they have very little education. This guy is a product of a corrupt country in Latin America that really doesn't have the economy to support anyone and they keep on voting for the same people that make promises every year

Undocumented???? So he broke the law to get into the US. But wants to follow the law in canada.

Liberal politicians and world leaders are trying to portray they have open borders and lax immigration laws to ale Trump look bad when in reality their laws are more strict and heavily enforced. They say one thing for optics and an agenda but have an entirely different reality. Most countries will not give you a true citizenship like the US and have iron clad strictly enforced immigration laws. Such as Canada and Mexico. Beware socialist/ communist ideology! It is the downfall of an empire!

How could you not inform yourself to the best of your ability so that you are prepared? My mother looked into everything, gave up everything, to come to Canada. It was tough, but did it so that the kids she would have would be Canadian, a country she believed in. \nI’m so proud to be Canadian, and for us to be a country that welcomes all, but those that come should inform themselves of the processes and try to learn the culture, not just have it as a ‘better life’ ticket.

It's funny, skilled and educated legal migrants in Canada usually goes to US to apply their trades/profession. While the opposite attracts Canada. LOL\nUSA rewards education, experience, and skill, even if it was acquired outside of USA.\nCanada is more socialist, but seems to devalue their educated legal migrants, put them on survival jobs and treat them like trash.\nSo that explains your question.

Illegal. What part of that can't people understand? Illegal entry in to the US then snuck in to Canada and can't understand why he will be deported?

Your not persecuted and not a refugee…just wanting to move is not enough. Let’s face it, when Canada throws him out he and his family will be illegally back in the US.

Yes, she is racist and hypocrite mindset. She realised an apology to save herself. I would urge minorities in Canada to stand up tall against the right wing. Don't give them a chance.\n\nAlso speak the language you want. Canada and US are not created or owned by right wing to dictate the language people speak.

Silly me, I'm still trying to figure out how anyone can come from the US, enter Canada Illegally, and claim asylum. Was he not supposed to claim asylum in the US? Had he done so he would probably have still had his money rather than giving it to stupid Trudeau.

Why the fck would think Canada is very different from the US? In some ways they both share some things like idk...IMMIGRATION.

I LOVE Canada! I live in the US and have dealt with racism my whole life. It was not until I went to Toronto that I felt completely free of discrimination. It was so amazing to feel NOTHING for the first time in my life!\n\nPlus the women are so beautiful!

A government official didn’t do there job if one bomber got in to Canada if that person can’t do there job find someone else \nWe are looking at America news and that’s what is making us scared

In Canada, there are hardly many jobs and no infrastructure for our own people. Even less willing the spend money to create jobs and infrastructure themselves. Unless you are able to build your own home and create your own business and employ US, there's next to nothing here for you as it is for ourselves.

Here's my message to illegal immigrants, liberals and the liberal media. This to the liberal media, Justin Trudeau said all the stuff he said about welcoming illegal immigrants with open arms and all of his Trump bashing also happened for one reason and one reason only. Because your cameras were rolling. It made him look good to all his liberal sheep and it made him feel good that he was standing up to the BIG BAD UNITED STATES AND THEIR BIG MEANIE PRESIDENT. He never for one minute meant what he was saying. Look back at all the things liberals like Chuck Schumer and Barack Obama himself were saying about illegal immigration when Obama was president. Back then they sounded exactly like Donald Trump. Even Justin Trudeau in the video clip they show in this video. I bet you people at Vice News even still think Justin Trudeau is some great awesome prime minister for standing up to the big mean US president. Yet you can't see past your rose colored glasses that he really isn't going to do a damn thing to help the illegal immigrants he promised to welcome. He'll deport them just like the big mean president. He'll just wait till they've spent all their money in Canada first.

He was lied to by HIS country about coming to the US, then he was LIED to by the Corrupted Media about going to Canada. He is one Gullible person

The US enforcing its immigration laws is racist. Canada enforcing it's immigration laws is a-ok.\n\nProgressive Liberal hypocrisy at its finest.

There's no such thing as asylum from the US to Canada!

I'm a US expat living in China. In china, you cannot get a green card. I leave every 60 days because I can only stay for up to 60 days, just to turn around and come right back that same day. Once i'm back in China, I need to register my address with the police, and update my resident card. To get a 60 day business visa here, I had to get a Chinese company send me an invite, then need it to get approved. The process was expensive. But I follow Chinese law, and respect it with everything that I am. This is China and this is there laws. So who is VICE to make a victim out of this person? Just a crock of shit. This guy can go to many many countries around the world. India, Indonesia, even China but from the looks of it, this guy could not handle China. Why does he absolutely need to settle in Canada or the USA and cry when they don't want him? Go mother fucker, go anyplace in the world you want, just go.

Too much emotion here. Fact is that if a person is an illegal immigrant in both Canada or the US, they are in the custody of the state, and the state will have to house him/her. That could be a jail, or an ICE detention centre or a temporary housing accommodation, e.g. a hotel. Question is, how much is being spent? It wouldn't surprise me if the cost of the hotel is cheaper than a jail.

One reason his claim failed was because you cannot claim asylum once you have already entered another country prior. He spent years illegally in the US then tried to claim asylum here in Canada. That has no legal merit for asylum.

I’m glad this welfare migrant and his family are Canada’s problem now. And the church in the US that hid him, should be prosecuted.

Ice is sending all illegals backs costing citizens to much when they don't work and demand things that really their not even suppose to get . They work the minimum if that and then stay on welfare while everyone else who works taxes go up bunch of free loaders . In fact we are cutting welfare and and benefits because of this we try to be nice but when we are token advantage of . Sorry are states are full of these freeloaders were also cutting letting people in because they don't do anything but demand money when their not even suppose to get in the first place then they hate us anyway and go around flying their damm flag around hollering Mexico . Mexico don't even want them they refuse to take them . They are just using them to get votes . We have enough people Canada can keep them . If he get caught here they will jail him. We are tired of the Victim act many people here have issues here to . United States has taken care of everyone around the whole world when war happens , trading but we get the short stick everytime . Beside when war break out which it will. Do you really think United States is the safest considering we're Babylon. Tell me something why are Hollywood people moving to different places ? It's only a matter of time .

But when that same thing happens in the US....people start screaming “Racists!!” ? But when it happens in Canada people just say “uh,”

trudope is a traitor to Canada and Canadians, he is not looking out for us .. he wants votes and will let illegals in to get it...we must vote him out. he is giving false hope to people like this

There is Safe Third Country Agreement between the US and Canada. Therefore the law says you are required to claim refugee status in the first country you land in. With that being said he landed in the US first and probably applied for status there. This is a strong deciding factor for the government's decision process amongst other factors. I feel for him but laws are laws.

The guy spent 15 years in the US and another year and he can't speak English or French. Sounds like the kind of citizen we need in Canada.

If he failed the asylum case then that's where it finishes. You either have substantive claims or not. He's probably a lovely guy, but has attempted to obtain asylum status under false pretences. People try it the world over. The US, Canada, Europe, Australia - but the world is waking up. Its a rort that needs to be dealt with expeditiously. They need to get this guy and his family back home safely.

Is this a PM of a G7 country?He has messed up such good relations with India,gave a free run to Islamists in Canada,threatening US with tariffs and now this..Canada deserves better

I think the US should just bus the illegals coming from Mexico into Canada since they love them so much. Maybe start a caravan.

That's Canada for you hes doing that because he wants the US TO BUY the country out and take care of them so I know LETS STIFF THEM OUT OF THEIR MONEY RIGHT NOW!!! TO WHERE HE WILL HAVE TO GET THE ILLEGALS OUT BUT I WOULD SAY FOR NOW STAY OUT OF IT TIL WE GET NEWS OF ANY ILLEGALS CROSSING THE NORTHERN BORDER!!!

As a Canadian screw Trudeau . I'm ashamed to call him my prime minister. At least his dad gave us the bill of rights and freedoms which is a historic document... His son aka Justin is literally ruining Canada .\n\nSo far he's put us in a tonne of debt , has no economic knowledge/political experience, is a hypocrite, went back on his promise for electoral reform (as the old system made him win lol) , is an Islamic extremist apologist , literally gave millions of tax $ to a terrorist because he was detained in Guantanamo aka Omar Khadar -_- etc ... The list goes on.\n\nWasting my tax dollars on people who not only are breaking the law but it's a joke - They just literally walk on over. Many have no skills or anything to actually bring to Canada either. They're not asylum seekers. They're economic migrants who broke the law by coming to the states illiegaly. Now because you actually have a president with balls to kick them out to where they came from they're coming to Canada where they know our PM can't even admit there's such a thing as an extremist Muslim. \nHe keeps using the excuse that Canada was built on immigrants. Yes. True. Legal ones. Or legitimate refugees fleeing war or persecution. Not bloody Donald Trump and a pretty developed / stable country aka the US. Smh. \n\nThe only good thing he's done is legalize weed and even then he's managed to screw it up by making it a government monopoly vs a free market the many US states have where entrepreneurs can thrive.

I may be wrong on the number but I think we have 54,000 homeless people many of them children and not enough shelters to house them. We live in one of the coldest countries during the winter many died Frozen on sidewalks. And now our dear prime minister is going to house refugees who entered the US illegally and fled to Canada because he told them they were welcomed. Justin Trudeau has become an embarrassment to us.
