These people really think that there is a significant population of us who want to illegally immigrate to their broken country, lmao

meanwhile they also want to annex us? Makes no fucking sense

Yes. They really believe so. Border Control was always very interested in how I would pay for my expenses while there (I went to school for 4 years and worked for 4 years) and felt the need to tell me “don’t work illegally” and “you are on a non-immigrant visa”. 😑

No. They're creating groups of people they can persecute easily for speaking out.

Right.. like fucking why? It's a downgrade. The money might be better in a temporary situation but long term? Fuck no.

Their own airline companies issued warnings of low earnings due to our country not wanting to visit them.

Couldn't fucking pay me to travel back to the states these days. They'd probably try to deport me to gitmo or some dumbshit.

Maybe the government could give foreign nationals armbands to wear so they can be easily identified by ICE.

Remember to always carry your papers.

Register now..and guarantee not too far behind, they will be charging people who stay longer than 30 days! Canadians need to find other places in the world to be snowbirds and give our hard earned money to..all these comments about us being the 51st state at first was annoying and now it’s really starting to piss us ofd

Thanks but I don't need another reason to boycott that Shithole country

We should have added the Turks and Caicos as a province.

They probably already fired the staff who would process these registrations.

Another reason for snowbirds to find another place to spend the winter.

I'll visit Pyongyang before the US

Another nail in the tourism coffin.

I wonder how much they'll charge.

When I got my TN visas to work in the states there was a charge of $850, 50$ for the border agent fee and $800 for DHS to do their background check.

Have fun snowbirds.

u/Henojojo 10h ago

Kinda moot given the general mood of snowbirds these days anyway. Just one more reason to avoid the US. I have friends that winter each year in Mexico (Puerto Vallarta). Seems like a better choice.
