It's not Canada's responsibility to accept all of the worlds refugees and displaced individuals, the poverty rate in this country is 13% and income inequality is rising rapidly, we should fix our own problems before trying to fix the worlds problems.

Exactly! How smart is it for a country to allow people to walk across the border bypassing legal border crossing points and claim some sort of asylum jumping the queue of real people in need trying to come to Canada through legal means, those deserving as actual refugees and asylum seekers.
The press in Winnipeg were calling these illegal immigrants "refugee's" up until a week ago when they realized those living in the US and then coming here were far from that. The new name for these illegals is ''asylum seekers"
Manitoba is a preferred choice for the illegal crossings because Manitoba pays legal aid for these illegal immigrants something other provinces don't do. Manitoba can afford to pay legal fee's because we are such a rich province, only $30 Billion in debt. with another $1 billion dollar deficit this year and recipients of the generosity of the federal govt. with $2 Billion in annual transfer payments! But yeah in the naive generosity that is being exploited lets pay the legal costs for non-citizens who have never contributed a dime to Canada!
