While politicians frequently write letters to vouch for families trying to stay in Canada, the Ballesteroses say they were turned down when they asked London Tory backbencher Ed Holder for support.

you like to "visit" people and always tell people to "go talk to them" why don't you go find the next 10 people that have been on the list LEGALLY for probablly the last 5-10 years to come to Canada and tell them personaly that they have to wait just a little while longer because these people that came here IL_LEGALLY have taken their spots!!

a sense of bigotry towards them made them feel uneasy......maybe they just felt Canada had more of a future.

I get that people escape a country when they need to because of the state of the country or because their lives are being threatened.


I also believe that a family who have proven themselves good citizens and individuals and have established themselves in a location should not be shoved out into life threatening danger just because of those laws, some dictatorial government leader, or bigot and racists.


I believe we have a huge, wealthy country that does not need to do this to a family, especially with innocent children.


 


I'm just the type of person who cares more about .......human beings.......than arbitrary laws that have no conscience.


 


"Get it" .......sure I do....... in spades.

Who is sending them back?


Probably some unionised beauracrat with a job for life.

As far as I'm concerned all refugee claims should take no less than 2 years.


 


If the refugee takes a walk and goes into hiding and doesn't show up for appointments. They should be sent back when found.


Any refugee participating in any criminal activity should receive a fair trial and deported immediately upon conviction. They can apeel from the country that they were sent back to.

So what's the problem? Oh, it would be better if they stayed in the US!! I get it now......it's ok for other countries to help people but not Canada.


So lets see if I have this correct. Here we have a family of good people who have jobs and are a part of the community and established themselves.


I really have no further comment to those who would send human beings including 5 innocent children to a country that has a massive crime rate, kidnappings, murder, a large record of assault on women, a country with one of the largest poverty rates in Latin America and a country for the most part run by drug cartels and all because this family broke a wittle Canadian rule.


 


There are days, I often say to those I know.........."I'll never understand some people".

“The best way to get a bad law repealed is to enforce it strictly.”  
―     Abraham Lincoln


 


“Laws, it is said, are for the protection of the people.  It's unfortunate that there are no statistics on the number of lives that are clobbered yearly as a result of laws: outmoded laws; laws that found their way onto the books as a result of ignorance, hysteria or political haymaking; antilife laws; biased laws; laws that pretend that reality is fixed and nature is definable.  A survey such as that could keep a dozen dull sociologists out of mischief for months.”  
―     Tom Robbins


 


“Errors do not cease to be errors simply because they’re ratified into law.”

Some people  believe that if they do not like a law it is perfectly OK to just ignore it.


 


 


Like boatloads of Tamil Tiger terrorists, which  are still costing the taxpayer.


 


 


 


People who disobey they law , and advise others to disobey, are called thugs for a reason.


 


 


If you do not like the speed limit  just go faster.

did you miss the words IL-LEGALLY???


 


have you contacted the others that applied LEGALLY to tell them these people that came here IL-LEGALLY have taken their spots???


 


I guess you would not mind if someone took your bike for a ride without asking as long as they came back later and paid for the gas right??

Some people are so anti-conservative and racist that they cannot see the forest for the trees.

still waiting for an answer on how the ages in the NEWS article (must be 100% correct) do not add up. There is NO POSSIBLE way that 2 of those kids could be theirs and still have been born BEFORE they made it to the states like the article says!!


 


they were in the states for 12 years and have been in Canada since 2009 which means the kids would have to be at LEAST 15--there is an 18 year old and then a 26 year old.
