    Default Ghana refugee makes it to Canada in winter.

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manito...toba-1.3930146

    Will for sure have all fingers amputated, one toe and maybe need to amputate arms. Detained in San Diego after his Visa ran out, got desperate and tried to make the winter crossing.

    Luckily he stayed fairly close to the road, if they had tried a deeper woods crossing they would not have survived.

    Assuming no obvious criminal intent, this man deserves being a resident. Must have been bad.

    Yeah just saw this on the National, states he was persecuted because of his sexual orientation.

    Sounds like a brutal trek.

    when he arrived in San Diego, he was detained for a year. He applied for asylum after his visa ran out but a judge denied his request

    USA! USA! USA!

    "I want to say thank you to all of you who show caring. The journey was worth it. I'm happy I'm here. To go back, I lose my life,"

    Sad story. As long as it's on the up and up and no fraud, I hope he is able to find a better life in Canada.

    Why are we criticizing the decision on his asylum request before we even know why he was denied? It's a good thing that there is a process, and it should deny people if it's for the right reasons.

    I really have no idea why they tried to do the trek in December during the worst blizzard of the year.

    Is it really that hard to hide out for a few months until spring/summer and literally make it a walk in the park?

    If the guy was just some harmless asylum seeker, why was he detained for a year in the US? Also, do we really need immigrants that are so stupid that they can't wait until warm weather to try to cross?

    I blame it on completely sane and rational fear of white people.

    I don't even know what to say to this. At least there is one thing in this world we can agree upon.

    He is hopeful he'll be able to stay and work in Canada and is grateful for all the help he's received from various groups, including the local Ghanaian community.
    Um, probably not, considering he won't have any arms or at best, any fingers. So, who wants to place bets? He is totally going to be allowed to stay.

    It's weird to me that comment would be so surprising.

    I guess I don't see the difference between accusing a random judge of being a piece of shit with absolutely zero information and accusing a random muslim of being a piece of shit with zero information.

    The other thing that bothers me is his asylum claim is based on the fact that he's gay, which is a crime in Ghana that carries up to 3 years of prison time (I looked it up). I think asylum should be reserved for those who would potentially be killed if they were deported back. They're not gonna kill him for being gay...

    I still think he's a moderator-created account rather than a real boy.

    It already has, that article mentions that illegal border crossings are up double or triple what they were.

    Its fucking ridiculous, ENFORCE THE LAWS THAT WE HAVE. Without enforcement of our laws, we don't have a society. The breaking down of this was clearly evident during the migrant crisis last year.

    Secure our god damn borders. Without them, we aren't a country... of course, the left want it to be that way. Its seriously crazy how so many talk casually about globalization and the eventuality of a one-world gov as a thing that will happen.
