Citizens have a right to seek employment. No one is obligated to hire them . These illegals do not have the right to even seek employment so if they do it will be under the table at low rates making harder for citizens to find decent paying jobs

I meant make it legal.

Like I said. If they are found ineligible for refugee status and can't find work, send them back. But if they do find work, then why not let them work visa-free? A person has a right to work.

Trudeau didn't invite refugees in providing they have skills.

I agree. His tweet was foolish.

As for skills though, I say if he can find legal work, let him work.

Don't you believe in freedom?

Of course I believe in freedom.

Who says having a skill as a prerequisite to staying in Canada is freedom?

People who don't work can be free too... correct?

And what of the people who don't have skills... deport them? What about the children?

Quagmire eh?

We offer them one form of welfare: a ticket home. But we don't force them to accept it. If he can't find work and is hungry, he'll happily take it.

Jews did not have rights in Germany either u til they were granted.

You see, rights evolve.


Jews did have rights until they were taken away.

Regardless, we have not seen that evolution yet and further, your position completely infringes on the Right to Work (assuming that it evolves at some point) of the citizenry of the nation in question.... Their Right to Work is being compromised by allowing in every Tom, Dick and Harry that demand to claim their rights at the expense of the citizenry

Well, I see myself as a citizen of the world. I believe we're all equal.

The unemployment rate in the US is lower than it is here. You let people stay that means you have to pay for their health care and everything else. Poor people do not pay income tax, you know. Due to our progressive tax system the top 50% of wage earners pay 96% of income taxes. So if we bring in tens of thousands of what are essentially unskilled labourers it's going to cost us a pile of cash, even if they manage to find a job at Walmart or Timmys.

Its like Trudeau's decision to allow in 10,000 senior citizen immigrants every year. They've never paid taxes or contributed to anything, but they'll be drawing heavily on our health care, pushing into already overcrowded senior care homes, and drawing pensions (though not CPP). And nobody ever talks about how much it's going to cost us.

So you believe in sending illegal immigrants back to their home country if they can't work?

Whoa!

Number of asylum-seekers crossing into Canada skyrockets in July | Globalnews.ca

The RCMP intercepted close to 3,000 people jumping the Canada-U.S. border into Quebec in July – a 284 per cent increase compared to one month earlier, and a more than 1,000 per cent increase than in January, according to Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
