Isn't that an easy solution, speed up the hearings and deportations. The current situation seems to be lets hope it goes away. This isn't a solution it is conflict avoidance. The not too subtle point is that we have a PM who has gone on the world stage building an image of peace , love and an open door policy to refugees. By painting himself into the proverbial corner he can't now take a tough stand, hence the comments the other day, asking refugees to respect the rules. Most of the current border crosses are Haitian , and Montreal has a large Haitian population already, so it is safe to assume that most if allowed to stay will end up there. One could safely make the argument that if Montreal doesn't care, certainly the mayor doesn't, and the Quebec government doesn't care, then it's there problem to deal with.
