It's almost as if you don't know that that vast majority of illegal immigrants to the US don't meet the definition of refugees nor are they asylum seekers, nor do they have a visa, nor do they meet the asylum requirements. Only a small percentage do..
You tried to compare these truckers, again most of whom are already going back and forth legally for transport reasons, and most of whom are likely holders of American passports (which grants a degree of latitude in North America), to illegal immigrants crossing the southern border. Are you claiming that most of these protesters in Canada entered illegally?
Now, an argument that can be made is whether they have the legal right to protest in another country. I don't know the law on this topic within Canada. That is a different comparison than you are trying to draw.
I made no reference to immigrants to the US. The protests are in Canada.

And yet you just ignore those who do fit those criteria and you just call the lot 'illegals', despite their actual legal status. I just did the same.

Cool, now do the southern border!!
It was Canada's Southern border I posted about??
Yep, just wanted your input on the US southern border.
You know, for continuity.
Are truckers blocking everything up in the US too?

Thanks for the link, bobs. Justin Trudeau has stated that he might accept Michigan's aid. If they brought American forces onto Canadian soil to repress a peaceful, constitutionally protected protest this would be HIGH TREASON. I am hoping appropriate authorities act and arrest this tyrant before it gets bloody.
Look at that gloating smirk as he threatens his own people!
'High Treason' as legally defined in Canada:
(1) Every one commits high treason who, in Canada,
(a) kills or attempts to kill Her Majesty, or does her any bodily harm tending to death or destruction, maims or wounds her, or imprisons or restrains her;
(b) levies war against Canada or does any act preparatory thereto; or
(c) assists an enemy at war with Canada, or any armed forces against whom Canadian Forces are engaged in hostilities, whether or not a state of war exists between Canada and the country whose forces they are.
