In addition to the Globe using "refugees" rather than economic migrants, it also never mentions the risk of criminals crossing into Canada illegally.  But that is a real risk when criminals in the U.S. see how easy it is to get into Canada.  Or how about having "refugees" illegally carrying handguns across the border for use by the criminal gangs in our major cities? This is a quote today from a Conservative MP:  " Our sovereignty begins with a tight border. Our security depends on a border that keeps criminals out. The growing number of illegal immigrants crossing our border poses great security concerns. Last year, we turned back 1300 illegal migrants who had a criminal record at the Lacolle [Quebec] border crossing alone. That is ten times more than in 2012.  As illegal immigration continues to increase, we need to take action."  I am guessing that a majority of Canadian adults agree with this perspective, but their opinions will never be sought.
