Ottawa has ruled out amnesty for the estimated 200,000 undocumented workers toiling in Canada's underground economy, saying it would not be fair to those who have applied legally and are waiting in line, according to a letter obtained by The Globe and Mail.
Allowing illegal workers to stay would likely “encourage more illegal immigration,” noted Linda Arseneau of Citizenship and Immigration Canada's ministerial enquiries division in an Oct. 18 letter to the Universal Workers Union.
“Even a small increase in the number who decide to come here and stay here illegally based on the hope of regularization would simply recreate the very problem the proposal is supposed to fix,” the letter says.
The decision is a bitter disappointment to Portuguese and Hispanic groups, home-builder associations and unions in Ontario that have lobbied CIC to allow undocumented workers in the construction industry to regularize their status.
The Canadian government is enforcing its immigration laws. There goes the American Open Borders Lobby's excuse its too hard to enforce our own immigration laws.

Of course America CAN do it .. after all, Eisenhower did deport illegal aliens in the fifties ... and there was the same hue and cry then ... "who's gonna pick our fruit" and all that **** ... well guess what, the fruit got picked all the same, without illegals ... would appear to me that Canada is more interested in their citizens, and America is more interested in their big corporations ... but there's no doubt that it CAN be done, if there's a bit of willpower behind it ... make sure to vote for people who have the AMERICAN people's interests at heart this upcoming election, if any such people can be found any more in this nation ....
