Neither does Europe, but none of us were ever democratically consulted as to whether we agree with the generous (terribly naive) asylum policies of our respective governments and the supranational  EU supremos. In fact, this is a reason why the British voted for "Brexit", among other. The problem is that a majority of Canadians voted for socialist Trudeau, who will doubtlessly be inspired by the likes of Angela Merkel and other similar humanitarian idealists - most of whom are unwilling to distinguish between genuine refugees (war and persecution) and economic migrants: both seem to stay ad infinitum, without any real justification based on the UN Refugee Convention. As usual, it will be the wider population that will suffer the adverse consequences in the future. At least in Canada, there is still time to swing the pendulum if enough of you voice loud and clear opposition to illegal immigration, and the not so desirable "cultural enrichment" linked to this worrying development.
