Come on, Sweden and Finland have accepted hundreds of thousands of migrants and everything was worked out fine... it's  not as if fire departments need armed police escorts in certain neighborhoods... Everyone knows short-sighted #becauseits'2017 symbolism is more important than policies based on common sense, just like the Globe's #progressive editorial on the illegal migrant issue. Entering Canada illegally is a universal right, especially when it is done to take advantage of a loophole in Canadian law. 
Canada's border controls are a joke, it doesn't matter if it's 7,000 or 70,000, Trudeau will not amend the law as it would be an admission of failure from the beginning.  Just remember, it's not like Trudeau could have predicted this in January when everyone said it would get worse once temperatures improved. 
Trudeau would get a large majority if there was an election today, that's the point. Canadians deserve each other and they deserve what comes next.
