In 2006, notable Canadian conservative, Mark Steyn, authored a book titled America Alone. He argued that the values and cultures of the Western world were being erased by population booms among third-world Muslim demographics — aptly named Islamic imperialism.
More than half of Americans believe that the situation at the southern border amounts to an ‘invasion’ while another third of respondents in a new poll expressed worry over being replaced by illegal immigrants.
The new NPR/Ipsos poll released Thursday shows an overall decline in support for immigration as new images emerge every day of hundreds to thousands of migrants crossing illegally over the southern border.
Aerial video from the southern border on Thursday shared by Fox News showed yet another large group, this time of approximately 150 mostly single adults, arriving in Eagle Pass, Texas after illegally traversing the Rio Grande River from Mexico.
The number of Canadians who predominantly speak a language other than English or French hit a record high in 2021, according to new census data released on Wednesday.
English and French remain the dominant languages in Canada according to Statistics Canada, but the number of people who speak a non-dominant language at home grew to 4.6 million, or roughly 13 per cent of the population.
The arrival of busloads of migrants into New York City has raised questions about the administration’s border policies. Here are the facts about our increasingly dysfunctional immigration system:
Under US law, most migrants coming here without permission must be expelled. The only exceptions are migrants fleeing torture or racial, religious, ethnic, political or social-group persecution. “Economic refugee” is a contradiction, and “seeking a better life” means nothing if a migrant lacks permission to enter.
The state of Arizona will not wait for the Biden administration to build a border wall on the U.S.-Mexico boundary and instead has chosen to go it alone, erecting its own state-funded barrier to stop an unprecedented flow of illegal immigrants.
Gov. Doug Ducey‘s top advisers announced in a call with reporters Friday morning that construction began “six minutes ago” on a portion of the Yuma, Arizona, border where gaps of land between Trump-era wall projects exist as a result of President Joe Biden’s January 2021 order to stop building the barrier.
Borders exist only to be crossed, identity is a relic to be deconstructed and overcome and society a supermarket. Germany as a model.
“A country loses faith in its future when its citizens no longer dare to have children”, said former Chancellor Helmut Kohl, mindful of being part of the “Flakhelfer” generation, the children used as auxiliaries of the Luftwaffe in the terrible days of the end of the war.
Thirty percent of German women today will never have children. They had thought that the society in transformation, selfish and consumerist, which is satisfied with a BMW in the garage, quiet holidays in Carinthia and in Italy, professional mobility, and silence, was sustainable.
More than a decade ago, the late historian Bernard Lewis warned in German newspapers that if current migration flows continue, Europe will be Islamic by the end of the 21st century. “Europeans marry late and have few or no children. But there is strong immigration: Turks in Germany, Arabs in France and Pakistanis in England. At the latest, following current trends, Europe will have a Muslim majority in the population at the end of the century”. German political elites – moderate (Merkel) and progressive (Scholz) – are at the forefront of making this prediction come true.
… The people who ignored this trend and castigated anyone who discussed it are the same people who today demand that more money is spent on the public services to sustain such a large population. This was never primarily a matter of culture, though that did matter to many people. Their concerns were dismissed as bigotry by supercilious middle-class “progressives” who regarded it as a welcome boost to the multicultural nation they were keen to build. But, of course, they weren’t competing with the new arrivals for jobs, schools and services.
Gallup has been tracking Americans’ views on immigration issues for decades at this point and public opinion has shifted back and forth measurably. But their latest survey has shown a remarkable change from the prevailing attitudes that were seen only a few years ago. For the first time since 2014, more Americans want to see fewer immigrants allowed into the country than those who want to see more migrants or want to see the number remain the same.
Republican southern states have vowed to keep bussing migrants to Democratic cities further north as America grapples with a record- breaking wave of immigration and a mounting humanitarian crisis.
They blame President Biden for the record numbers crossing the border from Mexico. More than 220,000 people were apprehended by US Border Patrol in May, an all-time monthly high.
An illegal immigrant has been charged with kidnapping a 12-year-old girl who alerted cops to the decomposing bodies of his girlfriend and her son, after she chewed through her restraints.
Jose Paulino Pascual-Reyes, 37, drugged the girl with alcohol and has been charged with three counts of capital murder after police in Dadeville, Alabama, made the gruesome discovery.
The first bus of migrants sent from Texas by Governor Greg Abbott arrived in New York City on Friday morning.
The group was dropped off at Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan after making the almost 2,000-mile trip from the border in footage captured by Fox News.
A group of charity workers and volunteers greeted the roughly 50 migrants, who were mostly men, before they ventured into the city.
In letter to Ottawa, 4 provinces say they can choose newcomers with ‘greatest chance of success’
Citing a nationwide labour shortage, several provincial immigration ministers say they want more control over the immigration process, and have sent a letter to their federal counterpart calling for change.
Ministers from Ontario, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba are calling on Sean Fraser, Canada’s minister of immigration, refugees and citizenship, to allow their provinces to select more immigrants “with the skills they need most” in a letter sent Tuesday night.
“We need the ability to respond to the rapidly evolving needs of specific areas and communities, with a flexible system that we can adapt to changing economic and humanitarian needs,” the letter states.
In Canada only corporations get a say in immigration policy.
In the early hours of Friday, May 6, Gerardo Avila and five other migrants scaled the 18-foot U.S. border wall next to a Mexican highway, about a quarter mile west of the Otay Mesa port of entry in San Diego.
Avila had been deported to Mexico a few weeks earlier after three decades in the United States, and was trying to get back to his family for Mother’s Day, relatives said. As he was climbing, bright lights from a border patrol vehicle flashed in the direction of the wall, illuminating the foggy night sky. Agents heard a scream and saw Avila fall about 15 feet, according to a Border Patrol statement, which identified him only as a “male citizen of Mexico.”
Avila, 47, was declared dead at the scene. The others were rushed to hospital.
In the first six months of this year, more people crossed illegally into Canada at Roxham Road in Quebec than in all of 2019. The asylum seekers fast-track route may have all but shut down for much of the pandemic, but now it’s back in business with gusto.
The Biden administration dramatically reduced migrant prosecutions by nearly 80 percent in the 2021 fiscal year, even as illegal crossings skyrocketed.
Just 2,896 migrants apprehended on the southwest border were transferred into U.S. Marshals Service custody in the 2021 fiscal year, according to an internal Department of Homeland Security memo obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. In the 2020 fiscal year, 13,213 migrants were transferred to federal authorities for prosecution.
