I have some sympathy for the Haitians who were legally but only temporarily permitted to stay in the U.S. due to special circumstances (the earthquake disaster) and who reportedly face the loss of temporary status as well as potential deportation at the end of this year. Personally, I think we should give these people, who have French and/or English language skills which will allow for faster integration, special consideration. As for those who entered the U.S. more recently on temporary visas, some with the intention of coming into Canada, as well as those who have simply stayed in the U.S. after exhausting their options under U.S. immigration and refugee laws, I think we should take a harsher stance. It may seem inhumane but to do otherwise encourages more migrants to bypass the queue by entering Canada in the same fashion, which both promotes human trafficking and is unfair to those who've waited for years to have there applications considered and approved from outside of Canada.
