Exclusive: Almost half of Canadians want illegal border crossers deported

That's pretty lame considering the Euro-styled anti-American sentiment that runs through Canada.

I think we can fairly say, that when confronted with reality, vs. their words... Kanuckistani's are hypocrites.

You do realize there are countless reasons to dislike Trump other than his immigration policy?
 
The illegal issue in the US isn't a space issue either, it is financial.

And safety.

Whole are these illegal invaders?

We don't know.

Obama treated them like a catch-and-release fishing derby.

Now it's time to round 'em up... or herd 'em towards the Kanuckistani border, and then listen to the neighbors howl.
 
I think American groups should take a page from the Mexicans, and create information pamphlets about getting to Canada, and how to game their welfare system to the max.

I'd fund that, plus a few dozen buses to transport those who feel threatened, and want to escape.
They have been telling us forever how much better they would deal with the illegal immigration and accompanying drugs and gang problems. Hey...its time to put that money where they put that back bacon. (and no...NOT on a pizza)

You realize you can still dislike Trump and still NOT hope for the failure of the Country just to show him who's boss...right?

The Kanuckistani's and Svenska Köttbollar (Swedish meatballs) will show us how it's done.

Sweden's only got the highest or 2nd highest rape rate in the world... and 99% of their visitors haven't found a job. They're enjoying the Swedish system!

Obviously you didn't as the chart contain those who do not know.

So what? One can not want x and still not want x not. You're confusing the scope of the "not" operator. Look:

Suppose someone suggests to me: we should have waffles for breakfast. I can have three attitudes about that proposition. I can agree. I can be ambivalent. I can disagree. If the suggestion is made to ten people, and four of them agree while the rest either disagree or are ambivalent, it is correct to say "over half do not want waffles." (but incorrect to say "over half want not to have waffles.)

Excon said:
This is what you stated.

Isn't that another way of saying "over half do not want x"?
What you stated is incorrect in relation to this thread.
Or as I clearly said; "In this case, no".

Do you support deporting those living in Canada illegally?
48% Support
23% Oppose
29% Don't know.

What should be done with migrants who fled US and entered Canada illegally?
48% Send them back.
36% Accept them
17% Don't know.

See above.

Yep. I fall into that category.

Oh good. Cuz theres a ton of douchebags out there that want to 'resist everything' and dont much give a **** about what that brings.

ROTFLOL... That's certainly true, and funny, as I can see the Kanuckistani's surgically carving that one issue out of their anti-Americanism...

Rrrrrrright... LOL... It's always interesting to watch those superior mouthpieces eat crow, when a micro problem by comparison comes strutting across the prairies and their border.

ROTFLMFAO!!!

See above.
You are deflecting from being wrong.
In this case it did not mean that.
 
Excon said:

Yes, that is exactly what I meant when I posted. The apparent point of the OP is that a significant minority of Canadians want deportation. That means a majority do not want deportation--the point being that a majority either don't feel very strongly about it, or actively oppose deportation.

No. iLOL You can't spin this.

You are again making a false claim based on the available information.


It is not another way of saying "over half do not want x"?
"Don't know" indicated they are undecided, not that they do not want "X".


Your arguments have simply been lame.
 
I wonder what the other half want to happen with the illegals. As for plenty of room, perhaps they can incorporate the Yukon Territory and move all the illegals there and form their own province.
 
Maybe America should be forced to pay for a wall.

How does such a comment even make sense to you?

On scale the problem is not even comparable.
The U.S. does not publish a guide for those illegals going to or staying in Canada as Mexico does for those illegals in US.
The U.S. does not allow unfettered passage for illegals to Canada as Mexico does to the U.S.

The problem is not comparable, and thus your comment is not even sensible.

No, not false. See waffle example, above.

Excon said:

Yes, correct. "It" is not another way of saying "over half do not want x." I'm not sure what the question mark is about--"it" cannot be used to introduce an interrogatory.

Excon said:
"Don't know" indicated they are undecided, not that they do not want "X".

Incorrect. See waffle example.
 
No, not false. See waffle example, above.
Yes, in this instance it is a false claim and you were wrong.


"Don't know" indicated they are undecided, not that they do not want "X".
Incorrect. See waffle example.

Yes you are wrong.
Stop deflecting.

"don't know" is undecided. They fall into neither category.
You can not use them to make the claim you did.

Not false. See waffle example, above.

Not necessarily, but functionally the same.

Excon said:

Yes, I can. See waffle example, above. You cannot correctly predicate of someone who is undecided that the want not to have waffles. Similarly, you cannot correctly predicate of someone who doesn't know what they want to do with some group of people that they want to deport them. You can correctly predicate of the people who answered "I don't know" to the question of what to do with immigrants that they do not want them to stay.

Yes, I can. See waffle example, above. You cannot correctly predicate of someone who is undecided that the want not to have waffles. Similarly, you cannot correctly predicate of someone who doesn't know what they want to do with some group of people that they want to deport them. But you can correctly predicate of those people that they do not want to deport them. This, precisely because they do not want anything relevant.
 
Not false. See waffle example, above.
Yes false.
What you said; "Isn't that another way of saying "over half do not want x"?", does not apply here as they were already broken down into other categories.

"Don't know" does not mean "do not want", no matter how much you try to spin it.


..., but functionally the same.
:doh Then push on with your bs.

Using the customs of this forum where canadians lecture us about what our immigration policy should be canadians must listen to what Sweden or New Zealand tell them their immigration laws must allow.

Its only fair


Actually to be fare, I dont think its all Canadians, I think its a New Zealand guy that knows more about our countries than those living in the countries.....

telling us its not fare for taking them all in when he never has to deal with it.....
