Been in the USA for 15 YEARS and cannot speak English.

Canada does not "invite" them and neither does the USA. We want them all deported.

Grow up, be a man...go home and solve your problems on YOUR soil.

Run for office, protest on your President's doorstep.

Canada and the USA are not the solution to your poverty, overbreeding or corrupt government.

NO ASYLUM...WE HAVE FOUGHT, RUN FOR OFFICE, WORKED HARD AND HAVE OUR OWN TO TAKE CARE OF!

Beezer, I immediately noticed the fifteen years in the United States and the lack of English while speaking. Illegal aliens can live a lifetime here with little knowledge of English. This is another reason they cannot assimilate successfully and they seek and receive benefits from American citizen taxpayers.

This family has felt rejected in the countries of the United States and Canada. Life may be difficult for them in their home nation, too, but they would be home and probably have family for emotional support.
