In addition, due to the ageing of the boomers, we are soon (10 years) going to need all the workers we can possibly get our hands on.

Thanks tips, I am well aware of what Canada needs as far as foreign workers are concerned. Yes, we do need some, a controlled amount governed by the government and the ability to have them LEAVE when we no longer need them. We do not need 300 million potential workers from the US and another 110 million from Mexico, if that happened, you could kiss your way of life good by.

The POLITICIANS are far enough apart on those issues. Canadians are different from the typical american, yes, but you need to realize that most americans aren't your typical american, either. Californians are as different from Texans, as Newfoundlanders are from Floridians. The artificial differences between the different segments of our two countries are made up - mostly because Canadian politicians are really, really scared about the continuing existence of Canada. You can't tell me I'm more different from a Minnesotan than I am from a Quebecois - I've been to both, I'll tell you it's easy to tell which of these things is not like the others.

Ok, you go ahead and believe that.
We need more control of our borders, not less.
