But now we have the same hypocrites who defended and saved the job of Prime Minister Justin “blackface” Trudeau who are all bent because of what they think they heard.

On Saturday during former Boston Bruins coach and Hockey Night in Canada’s “Coach’s Corner” segment, Don Cherry lamented the lack of support from “immigrants” for Canada’s veterans on Remembrance Day. At no time during the clip available online did Cherry ever disparage Canada’s ethnic veterans, deny their existence or contributions. He went squarely after those whose nations today have problems with those newly-arrived, most of the time without permission, who refuse to assimilate and subsequently drain social services.

You wouldn’t know that from the kneejerk reactions of HNIC’s Sportsnet, the activist mind-reading media who put their racist thoughts in Cherry’s mouth, and his cowardly co-host Ron MacLean who threw him under the bus to save his job….

It’s not like immigration’s fully embraced in Canada and is without all the wonderful complications immigrants bring to a host country their liberals either whitewash, lie about or ignore.

It appears social justice has found an inroad into the National Hockey League and it’s only a matter of time before we find out just how many agree with Don Cherry and if so, will Sportsnet pay an appropriate price? Succumbing to social media whiners, most of whom don’t know what “The Original Six” is in reference to, is not always the best way to preserve a popular business model.

The recent experience of the National Football League should be a good example worth reviewing.

Mr. Obama called on Americans to feel compassion for the millions of undocumented people living in the shadows, saying that deporting millions is “not who we are” and paraphrasing Scripture that says “we shall not press a stranger for we know the heart of a stranger — we were strangers once, too.”
— New York Times, 11/21/14

Most strangers enter your home upon being invited and treat your home with the appropriate respect. Most strangers don’t demand entry and once in, expect you to support them, and in some cases, violate you and your property. At that point, they’re not referred to as strangers but criminals.

Thanks to messaging sent by former president Obama and the Democrat Party, illegal aliens are demanding to be allowed to enter our country, on their terms….

Military police officers clash with migrants from Africa, Haiti and other countries during a protest in front of an immigration center in Tapachula, Mexico, demanding free transit through the country to reach the United States.
— Voice of America News, 8/27/19

They’re complaining about the conditions in a house they weren’t invited to enter.

There is growing unrest and desperation at a detention center in Tapachula, Mexico, where migrants from countries outside of the Americas are denouncing what they say are poor living conditions.
— CNN, 6/16/19

If this is what those who cavalierly violate the sovereign borders to our southern neighbors will do while in transit, just what can we expect of them should they be allowed to cross into the United States?

We already know what they’ll expect of us.

Parents with DACA are wrestling with the question of what to tell their children, and whether it would be best to leave them in the United States or take them away if they are forced to leave.
— Vox, 9/1/17

This is something “parents with DACA” should have wrestled with BEFORE they decided to violate the United States’ sovereign border because THEY wanted to, assumed THEY were wanted here, and shortsightedly put their children in the legal limbo they find themselves in today.

Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) on Monday responded to a report that said President Trump will end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, saying in a statement, “It is right for there to be consequences for those who intentionally entered this country illegally. However, we as Americans do not hold children legally accountable for the actions of their parents.“
— The Hill, 9/4/17

Well, that kinda’ conveniently lets everyone off the hook… again.

Not once can we remember a DACA child admit their parents are to blame for their current predicament. Illegal immigration is the ONLY felony committed in the United States where, since so many millions have violated it, there’s a political desire by opportunists to change the law. As we’ve argued before, the laws against grand larceny would never be changed even if millions decided to rob banks in order to provide a better life for their families, yet millions can violate our immigration law and be declared a victim deserving of sympathy.

The law is quite clear.

Any alien who (1) enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers, or (2) eludes examination or inspection by immigration officers, or (3) attempts to enter or obtains entry to the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation or the willful concealment of a material fact, shall, for the first commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than 6 months, or both, and, for a subsequent commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18, or imprisoned not more than 2 years, or both.
— 8 U.S. Code § 1325 – Improper entry by alien

The law doesn’t say anything about leniency for children being brought into the United States by parents who, by the very action of sneaking in, knew they were breaking the law. They just never believed THEY or their children would be caught and held responsible for their illegal actions.

Those innocent children of illegal aliens need to have that conversation with their parents before they assemble in front of the White House and demand an exemption of federal law be made for them simply because those parents intentionally violated federal law and involved them as well.

President Obama’s executive action was unconstitutional. The parents of illegal aliens who brought children along for the ride when entering the United States, simply because they had the convenience of a border to run across and blew off the process many wait years to complete, are to blame here. NOT the American people, not immigration law, and not President Trump.

Univision anchor Jorge Ramos argued that the vast majority of illegal immigrants in America are just people trying to create better lives for themselves and their families.
— Fox Insider, 2/13/17

Try robbing a bank and once caught, argue that you were only trying to make a better life for your family and see how far that gets you.

It’s just a question if the willfully-undocumented, their children and supporters will ever accept responsibility for their illegal actions because they’re not expected to.

As a side note, Obama’s DACA executive order was in response to the thousands of children, sent unaccompanied by their parents, to the United States and the result was young people mixed in with the children brought into the country by their illegal parents who became known as DREAMers.

Not that anyone has intentionally misled the nation on the issue….

Remittances, or wire transfers such as Western Union Moneygrams from the United States represent the second largest source of income for Mexico. In 2009, Mexican workers, mostly illegal aliens, sent home $21.2 billion in such transfers. Remittances are second only to Mexico’s oil industry in the amount of revenue produced, which is one of the chief reasons the Mexican government has no interest in working with U.S. authorities to police our common border.

Furthermore, according to the Inter-American Development Bank, all of Latin America received $69.2 billion in remittances from the U.S. in 2009 alone.

Thus, dispelling the myth that illegal aliens contribute to our economy. The fact is, that the overwhelming amount of the wages earned by illegal aliens is not spent in this country, but simply sent back home.

If it were up to us, we’d BAN ALL WIRE TRANSFERS TO MEXICO and beyond until they used the same amount of effort to keep their people from entering the United States as they did keeping Central Americans from entering Mexico to settle, right? Letting them in to go to the U.S. (as is happening today) is another issue altogether.

For those pushing that dubious “6.1 million” number of illegals from Mexico, if all of them were sending money home, they’d each be sending an average of $3,475 for each man, woman, and child here. Since not all of them are sending money, the dollar amount per illegal being sent back per year would have to be much higher and unrealistic, again IF you believe that 6.1 million tally.

Then again, stopping all transfers until the Mexican government got it’s act together would give them something to think about.

As of now, they jettison their uneducated and unskilled and get paid for it.

The United States gets screwed again.

UPDATE

The numbers keep getting larger.

Mexicans sent home $26.1 billion from January to November 2017, according to figures released Tuesday by the central bank of Mexico. That’s the most ever recorded and better than the $24.1 billion sent in 2016 over the same period. Barring a major setback in December, the total annual figure for 2017 is on pace to hit another record high.

Remittances are one of Mexico’s top sources of foreign income, outpacing oil exports, which totaled $18.5 billion between January and October, according to the most recent figures available at the Bank of Mexico. Manufacturing exports are the top source of foreign income for Mexico.
— CNN Business, 1/2/18

And cutting off those remittances would likely do what…?

UPDATE

New numbers are in that kinda’ differ with what we were issued before, then again numbers are always sketchy when it comes to anything concerning illegal immigration.

Immigrants from the three Central American nation’s sourcing many illegal border crossers sent a record amount of money home last year, bringing the total this decade to $120 billion.
— Washington Examiner, 3/20/19

Bottom line is we know what would get the undivided attention of the offending nations. It’s just a question of who in the United States will be ready to push the cutoff button.

UPDATE

Too bad this wasn’t considered when the unprecedented wave of “unaccompanied children” came years ago.

The White House is planning on targeting remittance payments made by illegal immigrants in the wake of an ongoing migrant flood at the U.S. southern border, a senior administration official told reporters Tuesday.

The plans to target remittance payments come amid a broader shakeup at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and future executive actions designed to curb illegal immigration. Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, who is being considered to replace outgoing DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, told Breitbart, “The threat I propose is one that actually helps us if we follow through on it. That is the threat of ending remittances from the majority of people in the United States from Mexico who are here illegally,” adding “they don’t want to risk losing that massive flow of foreign capital. In most years, it’s their second biggest source of foreign capital.”

You know, THIS will get Mexico’s attention.
