- … wonders about “Homeland Security” thingies speaking Spanish to each
other;
- … quotes Bill from Montreal — first two newborns this year in
Montreal, a Mexican & a mulatto;
- … revisits Haiti two years after the earthquake — still hopeless: 50%
of the rubble still unremoved;
- … reports that unemployment up in Canada to 7.5% in December; 55,000
jobs lost in fourth quarter. So, why will we still import more than 700,000
in 2012, 85% from the Third World?
- … observes mass immigration in times of unemployment causes poverty;
- .. contrasts 1957 and 2012 school crises – the difference: we were
then a homogeneous society.

Um, Hooray, 50 A Day – The Gypsy “Refugees” Are Coming

Albert Einstein said that the difference between genius and
stupidity is that genius has its limits. "Between January and August
of this year 2,045 people claiming to be refugees came to Canada from
Hungary; that's 13% of all refugee claims made during that time in
Canada, keeping Hungary as this country's top source of refugee
claims. [And, delightfully], once those claimants arrive, they're set
up to receive medical, dental and eye care at no charge, social
assistance benefits, and financial help for housing and furniture
while their case is sorted out. But, claims from Hungary are almost
never approved and most cases are usually abandoned or withdrawn
during the 12 to 18 months it takes to process them. Citizenship and
Immigration Minister Jason Kenney spoke out about the problem in the
House of Commons in April 2010. 'The allegations are that many of
these people were coached to come to Canada, make a false asylum claim
and then register for provincial welfare benefits which subsequently
flowed to a criminal organization. The asylum system was being abused
as a tool to access welfare." said Kenney." (Toronto Sun, October 1,
2011)

And it's getting worse: "As many as 50 Hungarian Roma a day are filing
refugee claims at Pearson Airport, putting a strain on airport staff
and medical services, according to border services officials. A record
110 claimants arrived at the airport one night last week, creating a
challenge for immigration and security personnel working to process
them, officers say. The Hungarian Roma are a stateless ethnic group
that considers the name 'Gypsy' derogatory. [Here's a capricious
sensitivity: Many 'Roma' very happily refer to themselves as
Gypsy/Cigany and Gypsy music is not about to be renamed 'Roma music'
any time soon.] Entire Roma families, from babies to grandmothers, are
getting off flights and claiming refugee protection at Pearson,
alleging they're being persecuted by 'skinheads or Neo-Nazis' in their
homeland, border officers said. Frontline officers at Pearson said
extra staff had to be called in last week when the 110 claimants
landed. Staff worked throughout the night to process them before they
were released to shelters or the care of family members. [Mutton
headed as it is, our refugee system was never intended to function as
a taxpayer-supported family reunification programme. If these arrivals
have family members here, they should be turned back and advised to
make application to enter under the appropriate and legitimate
stream]. Officers said many of the refugee seniors and children suffer
from health issues and expressed concern they're placing a burden on
the health-care system. Hungarian citizens do not require a visa to
travel to Canada and Hungary has been a leading source of refugee
claimants in recent years, according to the Immigration and Refugee
Board (IRB). Some 2,400 Hungarian refugee claimants were referred to
the IRB for hearings in 2009. There were 2,300 in 2010 and about 2,500
from January to September of this year. About 23% of the claimants are
accepted as refugees. Officials at the Canada Border Services Agency
said Tuesday that they are looking into the issue. Gina Csanyi-Roban,
executive director of the Roma Community Centre, said Toronto shelters
are full and the newcomers are being housed in other communities.
'These people are scared and running for their lives,' Csanyi-Roban
said on Tuesday. 'Neo-Nazi groups are setting up training camps and
committing violence against the Roma.' [And look where they run].
Immigration lawyer Richard Kurland said Roma don't have to travel to
Canada and can legally seek asylum in any European Union country.
'They don't have to remain in Canada,' Kurland said. 'They can return
to any European country and legally work.' [But who wants to work in
the EU when Canada will set you up with a free apartment and fit you
for tinted contact lenses?] Some CBSA officers said many Roma go
underground in Canada rather than be deported to Hungary. Close to 700
refugee cases have been abandoned by Roma in the last three years."
(QMI Agency, October 26, 2011) "It takes at least two years to process
refugee claims and each claimant ends up costing taxpayers about
$150,000." (Toronto Star, April 4, 2011)

So a single 50-Gypsy night at Pearson will cost Canadians something
on the order of $7.5-million. Gee, what's the catch? To put public
outrage over Tamils sneaking in on the MV Sun Sea into context, we're
seeing as many claims from Gypsies alone -- at Pearson alone -- every
week. "This is a problem that most other countries don't have.
Consider: Neither Canada nor the United States requires visas for
Hungarian tourists. In 2010, 32 Hungarians applied for refugee status
in the U.S. -- a record high. At the end of June, Canada was on pace
to accept 3,200 claims from Hungarians in 2011." (National Post,
November 4, 2011)

It’s time to retake control of our borders and have Parliament use
the “notwithstanding” section of the constitution to overcome the
wacky 1985 “Singh Decision.” All immigration or refugee claims
should be made and
