Refugee/Migrant Crisis

[Never]

Hey, somebody's got to do the cooking. That's why we have France and Italy as NATO allies.

France and Italy are two rivals of America's heyday in 2020's.

Also the Russians are rivals of the dominance of the United States power factor but the three I consider are far away from the same economic power of where in North America and been the United States as the end of the Second World War was the power.

The heyday of the Soviet Union but not more.

Canadians responsible for hundreds of terrorism deaths and injuries overseas

A suicide bomber from Calgary strikes near Baghdad. A Windsor man masterminds the torture and killing of foreigners at a Dhaka bakery. Two London, Ont., gunmen take hostages at a gas plant in the Algerian desert.
Canadian terrorists have killed and injured more than 300 in other countries since 2012, according to figures compiled by Global News that document the victims of so-called extremist travellers.
Fatal attacks in Algeria, Bangladesh, Bulgaria, Iraq, Russia, Somalia and Syria were attributed to Canadians during that time. An attack in Michigan resulted in no deaths but seriously injured a police officer.
Citizens of 19 countries were killed in attacks involving Canadian perpetrators, including locals and British, Colombian, French, Indian, Israeli, Italian, Filipino, Japanese, Malaysian, Norwegian, Romanian and U.S. nationals.
The majority of killings were claimed by the so-called Islamic State, while others were the work of Al Qaeda affiliates and Hezbollah, but attacks by Al Qaeda-aligned groups were more deadly.
The figures are an attempt to tally overseas terrorism casualties attributed to Canadians from the time that numbers of extremist travellers began to spike in 2012 until the territorial defeat of ISIS last month.
Global News compiled the data from the Global Terrorism Database, Canadian Terrorism Incident Database, government documents, interviews, news reports and releases by terrorist groups. Included were attacks in which Canadians were direct participants or accomplices.
A total of 127 victims reportedly died in the attacks, and 195 were injured. Fifty-five attackers also died.
Four of the attacks killed more than a dozen victims and were worse than any mass murder in Canada since the 1985 Air Indian bombings by Sikh extremists. Injuries included stab wounds, burns and cuts caused by flying glass.
“While Canadians are right to think that terrorism generally happens less in our country, we also need to keep in mind that we export a lot of terrorism in different forms all over the world,” said Toronto-based terrorism researcher Prof. Amarnath Amarasingam.
Canadians have long been active in foreign terrorist groups, but their numbers increased sharply following the start of the Syrian conflict. In 2013 alone, overseas attacks in which Canadians played key roles killed 90 and wounded 98...……..More in link

The problem for America in blowing up China is China is now the worlds biggest market, as they surpass USA in buying power.
Dead people don't buy stuff.
Sure, you can blow up their train set, but it just gets them back to U.S. level.
Its not a good look.

Liberals propose immigration changes in budget bill that would deny refugee claims at unofficial crossings

OTTAWA — Refugee advocates are crying foul over proposed Liberal government changes to immigration laws that aim to keep would-be asylum seekers from entering Canada at unofficial border crossings.
The Canadian Association of Refugee Lawyers says the changes would rob vulnerable refugee claimants of fundamental human-rights protections.
The Liberals are proposing to prevent asylum seekers from making a refugee claim in Canada if they have made a similar claim in certain other countries, including the United States.
The changes were quietly included in a 392-page omnibus budget bill tabled Monday in the House of Commons — a move that is even more upsetting to refugee advocates.
Janet Dench, executive director of the Canadian Council for Refugees, says substantial changes to immigration laws like the ones being proposed ought to be given a full hearing in Parliament, rather than being slipped into a fast-tracked budget bill.
Dench says her members — including more than 100 Canadian organizations that work directly with refugees and immigrants — are in a state of shock and dismay over the proposed changes, calling them a devastating attack on refugee rights in Canada.

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is defending a changes to asylum laws included in an omnibus budget bill tabled this week, saying his government is working to ensure Canada’s refugee system is fair for everyone.
The changes would prevent asylum seekers from making refugee claims in Canada if they have made similar claims in certain other countries, including the United States — a move Border Security Minister Bill Blair says is aimed at preventing “asylum-shopping.”
Lawyers and advocates who work with refugees are sounding the alarm about the legal changes, saying they would strip human-rights protections from vulnerable asylum-seekers.
Trudeau says Canada has been seeing larger numbers of refugee claims because of global instability.
He says his priority is to ensure Canadians retain confidence in the country’s asylum system, which means every person who comes to Canada must do so according to the law.

AMSTERDAM — A photograph of a Honduran toddler crying as a U.S. Border Patrol officer pats down the child’s mother in Texas was named as the prestigious World Press Photo of the Year at a ceremony Thursday evening.
Getty Images photographer John Moore’s winning image shows two-year-old Yanela Sanchez and her mother, Sandra Sanchez, after they were taken into custody last June 12, and it fueled debate about tough Trump administration policies that included separating families detained at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Time magazine published Moore’s photo on its cover, producing anger over U.S. President Donald Trump’s family separation program. But Yanela’s father later told the British newspaper Daily Mail that his daughter wasn’t removed from her mother and the two were detained together.
Time stood by its use of the image, saying it captured “the stakes of this moment.”
“I think that this image touched many people’s hearts as it did mine because it humanized a larger story.” Moore said in a statement released by the context organizers.

The image also won first prize in the “spot news singles” category as awards were announced for this year’s contest, which drew 78,801 photographs by 4,738 photographers.
“It immediately tells you so much about the story. And at the same time, it really makes you feel so connected to it,” jury member and photojournalist Alice Martins said in a statement about Moore’s photo. “This picture shows a different kind of violence that is psychological.”
Photos of the migrant crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border also won a new award in this year’s contest — World Press Photo Story of the Year. Pieter Ten Hoopen of Agence Vu/Civilian Act, was honoured for a series of pictures depicting migrants in a caravan heading toward the border.
“I wanted to focus on the human aspects, on relations between the people and how they handle it,” Ten Hoopen said.
Moore and Ten Hoopen each won 10,000 euros ($11,268).
Among other winners, the “contemporary issues singles” category was won by Diana Markosian of Magnum Photos for an image of a Cuban girl called Pura being driven around her neighbourhood in Havana in a pink 1950s convertible to celebrate her 15th birthday.
Olivia Harris won the “contemporary issues stories” category for a series called “Blessed Be the Fruit: Ireland’s Struggle to Overturn Anti-Abortion Laws.”
Another Getty Images photographer, Brent Stirton, won the “environment singles” category with a photo of Petronella Chigumbura, a member of an all-female anti-poaching unit in Zimbabwe. A series of images by Marco Gualazzini of Contrasto highlighting the crisis surrounding the drying up of Lake Chad won first prize in the “environment stories” category.
Lorenzo Tugnoli, of Contrasto, for The Washington Post won “general news stories” with images of the war in Yemen.
John T. Pedersen won “sports singles” for his image of boxer Moreen Ajambo training at a boxing club in Katanga, a large slum settlement in Kampala, Uganda.

Russia fear the U.S. in the world both sides can killing life by nuclear war.

Maybe not, the Cold War is starting to look like a $5T heist instead, now they need 2x that to replace the stuff that was never built in the first place. Nobody likes a bad lie or one that has had no real thought put into it.

LILLEY: Trudeau's border move is smoke and mirrors

I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that Justin Trudeau’s one and only move to deal with the influx of asylum seekers crossing the border is nothing but a political gesture.
This after all is the same PM that wants to use the justice system for political reasons in the case of SNC-Lavalin. He’s also the same PM that just forced Public Safety to alter a terrorism report on threats to Canada to appease certain factions of the Sikh vote in Canada, listening to political pressure rather than our intelligence agencies.
So is it really shocking that Trudeau’s move to deal with the border issue is nothing but smoke and mirrors?
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau makes an announcement in Kitchener on April 16, 2019. (THE CANADIAN PRESS)
I’ve been listening to Trudeau receive praise for a section of the recently introduced budget bill that makes an amendment to the Immigration Act but he doesn’t deserve the praise.
The amendment is a good idea, stop asylum shopping by changing the law to say that if you have applied for asylum in another country then you can’t apply in Canada.

Unfortunately, it won’t actually do anything with Canada’s main border problem, people flowing across from the United States at Roxham Rd., the infamous spot that straddles New York State and Quebec.
LILLEY: Trudeau flirts with terrorist supporters, angers India, again
LILLEY: Trudeau plays politics with terrorism
LILLEY: Trudeau accuses Scheer of lying …. seriously?!
While some of the early arrivals that began pouring over the border after U.S. President Donald Trump promised to enforce American law and after Trudeau sent out his #WelcometoCanada tweet, were people that had applied for asylum stateside, most now are not.
The average profile of someone crossing at Roxham Rd. is a Nigerian national who flew into New York a day or two before they arrive in Canada and they never claim refugee status in the U.S.
Immigration lawyer and system expert Richard Kurland told me this amendment is pure politics.
“It solves a pre-election political problem in the event that hundreds of people jam into Canada from the U.S.,” Kurland said.
It allows a candidate facing questions on the border issue to say the government has heard concerns and that they’re acting on the issue.
“Does it take care of it? No it does not,” Kurland said. “It gives political candidates a sound bite to say they are addressing it.”
Conservative immigration critic Michelle Rempel called the change crass politics.
“After spending two years vilifying anyone that asks questions, all of a sudden they are once again using the asylum system for political gain,” Rempel said Tuesday.
“The actual key change that needs to be made is nowhere in sight.”
So what is the solution for dealing with the more than 20,000 people that came across the border illegally in 2017, the more than 19,000 in 2018 or the more than 3,000 so far this year?
Rempel believes the best way is to amend the Safe Third Country Agreement with the United States. That’s the agreement that says neither country will accept refugee claimants from the other country.
Except for the loophole that Rempel wants closed, people crossing in between official border crossings, like Roxham Rd.
Kurland, meanwhile, says the Americans need to be called out for letting this happen and they need to enforce their own visa rules properly.
No one who knows how the system works thinks Trudeau’s change will have any impact on the illegal border crossers, but it was never designed to do so.
Trudeau just wants political credit and to stop losing votes.
As with all things involving Trudeau, the policy is driven by attracting votes, not doing what is right.
