Well, chalk one up for common sense! After years of head-in-the-sand policies from the Democrats that turned our southern border into a welcome mat for the entire world, President Trump is actually making a dent in the disaster. We’re finally seeing a clampdown, and the tide of illegal immigration is, thankfully, starting to recede. This is the kind of decisive action that will, over time, bring tremendous benefits back to our communities and our country.

But hold your horses, because just as we start to breathe a little easier, the usual suspects on the Left are already scrambling, aren’t they? They seem allergic to secure borders and the rule of law. Instead of admitting their policies were a catastrophic failure, they’re now desperately trying to find new, inventive ways to protect and enable the very chaos President Trump is working so hard to clean up. It’s almost like they want to keep the crime flowing.

And wouldn’t you know it, their latest bright idea involves trying to drag our northern neighbors into the mess. According to a recent report from The Post Millennial, dated May 8, 2025, the globalist busybodies at Amnesty International are now urging Canada to fling open its doors and accept illegal immigrants who are, quite rightly, facing deportation from the United States under President Trump’s renewed commitment to law and order.

Amnesty International’s Secretary General, Agnès Callamard, apparently believes Canada should step up and lead.

From ‘The Post Millennial’:

“We are calling on Canada to be a leader in the international global system, the multilateral system. That includes, of course, the Refugee Convention.”

So, let’s get this straight. The United States, under a President who is simply enforcing duly enacted immigration laws, is now being painted as some kind of dangerous pariah state from which people must “flee”? The implication from Amnesty, as reported, is that the US isn’t “safe” for illegal immigrants. It’s a preposterous notion, especially when President Trump and Vice President JD Vance are merely fulfilling their promise to deport millions who are in the country illegally. This isn’t a humanitarian crisis; it’s a long-overdue course correction. They also conveniently seem to overlook the 2004 treaty between Canada and the US, upheld by Canada’s Supreme Court in 2023, which is specifically designed to prevent “asylum shopping” at official border crossings. But hey, why let existing laws and international agreements get in the way of a good virtue signal, right?

And Who Foots the Bill for This “Global Leadership,” Pray Tell?

Naturally, Amnesty International isn’t offering to chip in for the costs of their grand pronouncements. No, that burden, as always, would fall squarely on the shoulders of hardworking Canadian taxpayers. The Post Millennial article highlights some eye-watering figures: data from the Parliamentary Budget Office shows each undocumented illegal immigrant costs the Canadian federal government an average of $14,321, a figure that can balloon to $33,700 due to administrative delays.

In 2023 alone, housing and basic services for illegal immigrants cost Canadian taxpayers a staggering $769 million. And that’s not even counting local government and charity expenses! Even Canada’s then-Immigration Minister Marc Miller stated on January 15th, “Those folks are not welcome to Canada if they are doing so in an irregular fashion.” A rare flash of common sense from up north, though one wonders how long it will last under this kind of international pressure.

It’s Not Just Your Wallet They’re After, It’s Your Safety

Beyond the outrageous financial implications, there’s an even more sinister side to this open-door fantasy. The RCMP, Canada’s national police force, has flagged serious risks posed by organized crime exploiting these very migration channels. Authorities warned in 2023 that Mexican criminal groups, including the infamous Sinaloa cartel and Jalisco New Generation cartel, are actively involved in smuggling operations. A Canada Border Services Agency report, obtained by Radio-Canada, confirmed these cartel networks are trafficking not just people, but also firearms and narcotics across the U.S.-Canada border.

So, while groups like Amnesty wring their hands about “humanitarian concerns,” they’re effectively asking Canada to roll out the red carpet for elements that pose a direct threat to national security. It’s the kind of upside-down logic only the far-Left, like Canada’s NDP leader Jagmeet Singh who, on January 22nd, sympathized with illegals “feeling alone and afraid,” could embrace. With an estimated 10.99 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. as of a 2024 DHS report, and around 500,000 already undocumented in Canada according to an April 2024 government briefing note, the scale of this problem is immense.

It’s clear that while President Trump is diligently working to secure our nation and uphold its laws, the fight against the open-border globalist agenda is far from over. These international organizations, seemingly accountable to no one, will continue to push their narrative, regardless of the cost in treasure or safety to sovereign nations. It’s a stark reminder that common sense, fiscal responsibility, and the fundamental right of a nation to control its own destiny must be constantly defended.

Key Takeaways:

• Globalists now pressure Canada to accept U.S. deportees due to President Trump’s border success.
• This audacious demand ignores huge taxpayer costs and severe cartel-linked security risks for Canada.
• As Trump restores U.S. order, Leftist groups work to undermine Western nations’ borders.
