RCMP joking or not should not be 'tour guides'.   Obviously they have to be housed and fed, but then returned ASAP as they are not refugees but illegal border crossers.   

They could change their name to RCMB, Royal Canadian Mounted Bellhops. If this continues, or god forbid increases they may consider housing them on bases. I was posted to Borden when they did that with the Kosovo refugees. It was a shit show. Base personnel were told to have no contact with them, entire areas of the base were placed out of bounds for military personnel while the refugees were given free run of the base, including personnel housing areas. There were assaults, both sexual and violent, theft, trespassing in residences and many other offences. Nothing could be done about it. We were told it was out of the military police jurisdiction and had to be dealt with by RCMP. Of course there were no RCMP on base. We never heard if anything was done regarding the sexual assaults of two young girls, so who knows if anything actually was done about it? The theft issues were never resolved, or any of the other issues that we new of anyway. They were untouchable and the whole thing was a nightmare for the people on base. Chretien did make his orders very clear though, no contact, no interaction, they were royalty. The new barracks they housed them in had to be gutted after they left. They destroyed them, feces in hallways and rooms, carpeting torn up, walls smashed down, bathrooms destroyed. It cost a fortune and put the barracks out of commission for about six months after they left. They arrived and regular rule of law left at the same time. Of course non of this was reported to the public except for the marvelous photo op Chretien had with them when he tried to play basketball and fell flat on his face. Frankly we thought that was the only good thing about the whole damn mess.

Read about Europe and what is happening over there with illegal migrants in camps...   not a pretty sight.
