Welcome to Canada. Thank you for seeing us as a friendly state. Anyone in America feeling the crunch from the fascist leadership because of who they are or what they stand for should feel welcome here and know that we will listen to your story and do what we can to help you.
I mean the situation here ain't too great for Indian students either.
There's a lot of racists all around, and especially there's a lot of racism towards young Indians.
The difference is the racism is state sanctioned in the US.
Running into a racist troglodyte on the street is never going to be the same as being thrown in a detention center because you did 'free speech' wrong and are the wrong skin tone.
I agree with you. However 12 days in detention would prove it's even a bit more over the top south of the border. this young woman felt it was so much safer she fled law enforcement to come to a country with extradition treaties that is not her home. That's gotta say something as well.
Sure and why is that? Our government allowed to many people in to fast and the vast majority of them are Indian.
Orrr.. Orrr hear me out. They haven't been building enough homes.
Their issues are with rich NIMBY greedy people who bribe and pressure and are politicians.
If all of us flee to Canada, there will be no one left to fight back.
We love you for welcoming those of us who can't stay. But someone has to.
That's for the citizens who aren't going to get their visas or green cards revoked to do. Otherwise, people need to take care of themselves, first and foremost.
Fight back? Prove it. I dare you.
Maybe they can hold up some little round signs.
At least they'd be doing something.
We donβt have the housing to take everyone yet. But we will gladly help those most in need and those that can help build up Canada to accept more.
