Giving Immigrants A Bad Name & Mourning The Beaver....

I listen to people when they talk about immigrants in Canada. Some don't like it at all, some understand that Canada has a vastness that can accommodate these people.
I tend to look at it this way...if my country was war-torn or poverty stricken and i had a chance to move to one that offered my children and myself an opportunity to reach my potential and contribute to a society plus safety for my kids, I WOULD JUMP AT THE CHANCE. I don't begrudge immigrants a chance to live free.
NOW FOR A NEW TWIST.....let me introduce you to Mohamed Said Jama, 40 yr old Somalian man who is begging to stay in CANADA. Why you may ask is Mohamed begging?
This is not the first time the Canadian Government has TRIED to deport him. The Canada Border Services Agency made its first attempt to deport Jama last fall but the effort failed when Jama's CBSA escorts arrived with him in Nairobi, Kenya, but were unable to arrange a charter flight to Somalia. They brought Jama back to Canada where he was released on a $2,000 bond, a promise to report to monthly meetings with CBSA officers and avoid contact with known criminals.

Jama instead went underground until March 19 when Winnipeg police officers arrested him in the company of a "criminal with ties to organized crime," National Parole Board documents said.
Jama's original deportation order came after he was convicted in 2005 of aggravated assault, assault with a weapon and robbery for an armed home invasion in Winnipeg where he stabbed a man in the cheek.
So once again he is being ejected from CANADA.
KNOW WHAT I SAY......you had your chance the first time and what did you do, you again committed a criminal offense. What makes Mohamed think that Canada should keep him here if all he will be is a burden to the Canadian Tax Payers?
Mohamed says he fears for his life back in Somalia, that when his cousin was deported back in 2007, he was killed on his return. Why then do you think that Mohamed fled Somalia....CAN YOU SAY evading criminal offenses?!
I personally don't want to pay for Mohamed any longer...he has chosen his path in life and decided that keeping his nose clean was not the fun way to live. Canada should put him on a direct flight back to Somalia and who ever greets him at the airport is welcome to him. We can exchange him for someone who is willing to be free, make an honest living and become a decent part of Canadian Society thank you!

P.E.I. begins beaver culling
It seems that the government of PEI is having a beaver problem? They are causing damage to roadways from dams. They have decided, in their infinite wisdom to have them culled....YES KILLED! That is the stupidest thing i have ever heard. Why not move them? See if another province will accept them. THE BEAVER is a National Symbol, a proud and noble animal with a distinct history in this country. SHAME ON YOU PEI for destroying our heritage....you should be finding a way to relocate them. Of course, the government has decided to cull during a key period, spring. That means if they don't collect the entire beaver family, the babies will not survive either and probably die in the wild. OK, SO I HAVE A SOFT SPOT FOR ANIMALS. But just because we are at the top of the food chain doesn't give us the right to eliminate another creature out of convenience or that they are affecting our habitat.
Don't move next door to me.....I don't welcome killers of any kind.
Its the way I see it....
