  1. Why does Manitoba have to plead with the Federal gov to get help with refugees from the USA?

    Trudeau ought to be prepared for this, after all he issued a world-wide invitation. And yet, just having  22 refugees cause crisis? 

    Only 22, and they call it a crisis!:rolleyes:

    Wait til they come by the thousands!

      “We know this is a federal problem, it just happens to be in our community,” said Greg Janzen, the town’s Reeve, who is sending the federal government a bill to draw attention to the resources his community needs. “We haven’t heard a response yet, but I’m confident we’ll get something, even if it’s not exactly what we hope for.

      This has all been on our taxpayers so far, which really throws our fire department’s budget, for instance, way out of whack,” he said. “So what we’re trying to do now is plan ahead [in expectation] that there’s going to be a lot more people.”

      It's not like as if this is the first time this happened.  Feds should've been well-prepared for this!
