Since May of this year, I've had an exclusion order placed against me from entering Canada for a year because I had previously overstayed a visitor visa and lived there illegally for 4 years. I have a wife and 2 young children in Canada who I miss very much and I just want to be back with them.

I tried to appeal it through the Immigration Appeal Division but they said I wasn't eligible to appeal and they wouldn't even consider the appeal on humanitarian and compassionate grounds. I was wondering if there's anything else I can do to try and get it reversed so I can be back with my family in Canada. I'm afraid that if I have to wait another 6 months my children will eventually forget about me and stop loving me because they are so young.

I know people will ask about her coming to the US to see me but we just can't afford it. It will cost around $3000 for my wife and 2 kids to fly round trip to see me and go back. I just want to be back with them. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

ALLENTOWN, Pa. Nov 1, 2006 (AP)— A federal judge on Tuesday blocked the city of Hazleton from enforcing a pair of ordinances targeting illegal immigrants, just hours before the measures were to go into effect.

The measures, approved by City Council last month, would have imposed fines on landlords who rent to illegal immigrants and denied business permits to companies that give them jobs. They also would have required tenants to register with City Hall and pay for a rental permit.

U.S. District Judge James Munley ruled that landlords, tenants and businesses that cater to Hispanics faced "irreparable harm" from the laws and issued a temporary restraining order blocking their enforcement.

"We find it in the public interest to protect residents' access to homes, education, jobs and businesses," he wrote in a 13-page opinion.

You may have heard about the law passed in Hazleton, PA that levies large fines on businesses that hire illegal immigrants and landlords who rent to illegal immigrants.

Mayor Lou Barletta and the city council passed this law, but lawyers for the ACLU have suspended the enforcement of this law pending a case to see if it is constitutional.

What do you think? Is the Hazleton law that punishes Americans who illegally hire and rent property to illegal aliens legal, or is it unconstitutional? Give reasons for your answer.

The only advantage that I can see about discussing immigration is that it is an outlet for us. Does anyone actually believe that our government is going to do what the people want them to do? Do you think that politicians will tell you anything and then do what they want to do? Isn't it all about money and power?

.Should non-immigrants be forced to ante up a MS&D bond to make sure they exit the US when they are supposed to and not seek employment unless allowed to?

MS&D (Maintenance, Status and Departure), the lowest this bond can be is $1,000. My proposal is to issue every person wanting a non-immigrant visa or a I-586 (visitor for pleasure) card, but then levy on them a reasonable MS&D bond to make sure the abide by their conditions of entry and leave when they are supposed to. If they don't leave when they must leave then they forfeit the bond and automatically lose their entry documents and privileges indefinitely or a reasonable period of time.

I'm writing an anthology. This first one is about strawberry pickers:

There were never strawberries
like the ones we had
that sultry afternoon
sitting on the step
of the open french window
facing each other
your knees held in mine
the blue plates in our laps
the strawberries glistening
in the hot sunlight
we dipped them in sugar
looking at each other
not hurrying the feast
for one to come
the empty plates
laid on the stone together
with the two forks crossed
and I bent towards you
sweet in that air

in my arms
abandoned like a child
from your eager mouth
the taste of strawberries
in my memory
lean back again
let me love you

let the sun beat
on our forgetfulness
one hour of all
the heat intense
and summer lightning
on the Kilpatrick hills

let the storm wash the plates

Most of the answers I read here state that they like LEGAL immigrants and have no problem with them. Then if illegal immigrants were given the chance to be legal, would you have any problem with it?

We are doing some reading in my eighth grade classroom that discusses illegal immigration. Since it is such a hot button topic as of late, many of them have difficult and confusing questions that they want answered. I also need to remember I can't be too harsh or candid since some of the kids in my class may be/are the sons and daughters of immigrants (illegal or not). How does one enter the country as a "legal" alien? What does it specifically mean to be an "illegal alien?" What happens if/when an illegal gets caught? Is it true that if an illegal alien gives birth to a child while in this country illegally that that child is automattically a US citizen? I have heard about so-called "anchor children," but having a child doesn't automatically make the parents legal...does it? I want to give correct info to my students, so anyone with specific and verifiable information...please respond! Thanks!

The illegals I'm referring to, of course. Their gross disrepect for our laws, failure to assimilate, and making the rest of us cater to them is contemptable and should be punished.
