How long do you think it would take to find a solution if this problem were impacting the good folks living in Montreal's Westmount, Vancouver's Shaughnessy or Toronto's Bridle Path?

But this flow of illegal migrants into Canada is only going to impact the poor sluggos who occupy the bottom rungs of the economy. And they simply count for nothing in the political calculus.

The PM and his fellow one percenters are never going to have to compete with these new arrivals for scarce social housing, for black market construction jobs or find themselves in emergency wards filled with people who have never contributed a dime in taxes. So we will simply get empty platitudes about Canada being a land of immigrants and no stopping of the flow.

Diversity is our strength
