The Canadian economy is not crap and is not being suppressed by the US.

First off, I would like to weigh in on the issue of building a giant fence at the US/Mexican border. I do see the reasoning, but I think it will be ineffective. Rather, I think that the US should crack down on security at the border, by increasing the number of border patrol officers, and by keeping them there and not removing them in the near future. Honestly, the whole fence idea seems a bit like a media stunt to please the [public, to make it look like the US government is doing something. Now, for why we don't have to build a wall(fence) to keep Canadians out. First, Canadians like being Canadians, and want to be there. Canada is not a underprivileged country, and has plenty of jobs, and a secure government. Also, Canada cooperates with the US, and they are allies. Overall, I do not think a fence is needed on either border, but we do need to increase security on the US/Mexican border.

If you live in a country where millions upon millions of people enter from the southern border, and MUCH MUCH less from the northern, shouldn't you concentrate on the area with the worst problem?
That isn't to say that the northern border also be secured. It should, but the southern border is very porous and Mexico is in a lot worse shape than Canada so obviously people will try and come here. But at who's expense?

Canadians don't want to stay, in fact Canadians are EX-Americans. They left the Unites States on purpose and don't intend to come back....

You really have to ask?
Do you see hordes of Canadians illegally streaming into the country? Come on - I know you're a student - surely you could have figured this out on your own.

Why don't we just face the facts. Mexicans have brown skin and have a different culture than what Americans are used to, they also speak a different language. Canadians speak at least some English and have a culture based on toast made from wonder bread. Fact is, Canadians come into the US all of the time and it doesn't bother anyone. It hardly even gets mentioned. We may as well face it we are racists.

Because Canadians are not crossing our border at alarming rates, leaving economic destruction in their wake.
