[this at our 16 september celebration last month] [and we do have one single mother on welfare, whose born-canehjun PoS of a 'husband' shames all males while she is one of the finest canadians i know - newly documented, so friggin what, she is going to pay a lot of taxes real soon, genuine entrepreneurial personality] ... if the inmigrants i know are representative this nation is better off for welcoming them ... much better off - the more mexicanos you have the more you bring up your work-ethic and family-values averages
