Welcome to the world Canada!
For decades Canada's border fence stretched from the US Southwest all the way to Washington, Montana, the Great Lakes States, Upstate NY and New England.
Those days are gone.
The Maple Express is underway.

It depends. The government would rather not have to deal with this and they would have to make special provisions to let these people in. It would be in violation of the US/Canada agreement and an insult to the United States. If this a major influx of refugees the government is going to have choose between Trudeau cultivating the appearance of a humanitarian and the geo-political fallout.
100 million? A billion? A TRILLION?
Well if isn't then Canadians should consider invading NY harbor, yanking Lady Liberty off her current perch, towing her up to Newfoundland and parking her there where her light can once again shine brightly and where the words of Emma Lazarus may be more truly echoed.
I agree. It's incredibly dangerous.
Refugees are special cases are a little more complicated than first come first serve. It doesn't seem fair to people from Syria who have been waiting for years, but fleeing across borders is what refugees do.
I am not an immigration lawyer, but if they came to N. America and their first country of arrival was the US, then I would think that they can be handed back to the US authorities.
That said, I am sure that if the US authorities (officers on scene) can sluff off the chore of dealing with these illegal aliens, they will. Let the US and CDN bureaucrats deal with the legal problems. For example, they would wait until their chain issued a directive saying that if the Cdn authorities refused them entry, then the US would have no choice but to take them back and place them under arrest.
The problem here, the way I see it at any rate, is politics gets in the way of a Mountie saying, "Uh, uh! Back you go!"
Have the RCMP received instructions on how to handle the illegal aliens? Has the US border authority received instructions on how to handle any illegals crossing from the US into Canada? (IOW, let 'em go!)
Some of this we will never know. In the meantime, bureaucracy kicks in and what one would think is a simple process, gets bogged down. If after a few days, we see buses full of illegals being sent back to the US, with their wounds bandaged, then I will say the system is working.

Well dear, it might problematical getting her to Vancouver harbor........so let's stick to the East coast.......say St Johns?
Looks like they have a lovely spot quite suitable for the Lady and overlooking the inner harbor. :smile:
That is what the law says, in particular for refugees who originally landed in the US.
It will probably take much longer than that to deport anyone. In the meantime, the government is likely to lose track of a lot of them.

The inner harbour?! What? She's just welcoming the locals and maybe Europeans eh. Nothing wrong with Europeans. We welcome them like we should everyone else.
I put her there because she would be protected from the notorious Atlantic gales that NFLD is often subjected to, WU.
Which is why the system is fractured. Bandage the wounds, pack them on a bus and take them across the border toute suite! They broke the laws of the US first. We snagged them and turned them around.
But what of these people who are now on our side of the border? Immigration lawyers are probably made available, along with translators, to inform the illegal aliens what they've done wrong and what their rights are.
Most would ask, 'Why would any disappear?' Well, I'd bet that's because no one is watching them. No funds for extra babysitting help. Detainees can be kept under wraps at any Cdn jail until arrangements are made to deport them though.
I would be very surprised if the laws didn't read (paraphrased) to what I've written. If so, what's happened that a laid out process has failed? That, I do not know. The cynic in me suspects the immigration lawyers, but I have no proof that they would attempt any legal shenanigans.
Maybe you should instead point it out to the idiots who actually voted for Trudeau and his magic wand promises.
No, I know when a politician is bullsh*tting us. Trudeau's promise of electoral reform was just as empty and meaningless as Harper's promise to reform the Senate. The PM alone does not have the power to reform the electoral system or the Senate. Anyone who didn't have their heads shoved up their ideology would have known that in either case.
