New in PJ Media:
Yes, leftist politicians are fighting tooth and nail to keep as many illegal migrant criminal gang members in the country as possible, and yes, the Supreme Court has just stymied Donald Trump’s efforts to restore sanity to immigration policy and enforcement, but not every illegal migrant who is the United States right now is willing to stay here and accept the eager assistance of America-hating leftist attorneys to help fight it out and stay in the country that they also hate.
Some of them see the writing on the wall. They can tell that the Trump administration is determined to clean up the corruption and suicidal wrongheadedness of current immigration practice, and rather than get entangled in what would likely be a messy and contentious process, they’re getting out while the getting’s good. Hey, more power to ‘em.
The New York Post reported Saturday that “thousands of migrants scared of deportation by President Trump are fleeing to the Great White North, leading to a surge in asylum seekers to Canada not seen in years.” Heroes!
We’re not talking about just a handful of people here, although to be sure, the number of migrants self-deporting to Outer Canuckistan is just a drop in the bucket compared to the millions that Old Joe Biden and his henchmen inflicted upon us. Still, it’s a start: “at least 1,411 migrants attempted to cross the border in upstate New York alone in the first two weeks of April, according to data from the Canadian Border Services Agency.” That’s not a bad rate. Keep it up, eh?
The numbers are increasing, too. The Post noted that the 1,411 was “more than the entire month of March, when 1,356 people made the journey, which was already double the average of the previous months.” You folks are going to love Canada! They got Tim Horton’s! They got curling! They got Frosty Keith’s pale ale! They got the Toronto Blue Jays! In Quebec and all over the country, they speak French, and as most of these migrants are from Haiti, they’ll fit right in!
The news gets even better from there, as the Post points out that “this is just the number of people turning themselves into Canadian authorities to claim asylum — the actual number of border-crossers is likely higher, with many trying to illegally penetrate the largely unguarded border.” And so what possibly could be the downside, eh?
Oddly enough, there is one. You might think that because Canada has, at least for now, a far-left socialist government that doesn’t really think much of borders or a national culture and has already inundated the country with migrants at an more rapid clip than Biden’s henchmen managed, that they would be pleased as punch to welcome migrants from anywhere and everywhere and shower benefits upon them.
There is more. Read the rest here.

If European countries stop financing muslim migrants in their countries and gie no preference to muslims, there will be a lot of muslim self deporting too, Unfortunately, Europe is full of evil and idiot people.
