**In Brief**
* Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree says he won’t pass judgment on the U.S. crackdown by federal forces in Minnesota that resulted in the deaths of two residents. But he is quick to defend Canada’s respect for the law when removing people from the country under immigration provisions.
* “What I would say is that Canada is not Minnesota,” Anandasangaree said in an interview earlier this week. “I think my responsibility is not to opine on other countries’ processes but, more importantly, to ensure that our process is in line with Charter values, is in line with the rule of law and is in line with due process.”
* Anandasangaree, who is responsible for the Canada Border Services Agency, said Ottawa removed more than 22,000 people last year “in a compassionate and humane manner” while adhering to due process “every step of the way.”
Thank you for the nothingsauce article.
Politician asked about ICE in Minnesota.
Like the average Liberal politician, he answers with statements that are generally agreeable but do not have any relation to the question asked.
Sure glad our minister could clear up that buring question… Is a US state part of Canada?
Very good minister Gary, very good. You know geography. Now do Canadian firearm law.
Phew. That’s good to know!
I guess I don’t need to buy an atlas now.
Thanks Gary! /s
(Seriously… how does this guy have a job?)
We need to find a middle ground.
The total leniency accepted in Canada is undesirable as is the US accepting their citizens being the collateral damage of immigration enforcement.
The minister can’t claim we have rule of law when his government agencies are purposefully not enforcing the IRPA, and Parliament refuses to implement necessary legal reforms.
Stop gaslighting the people, there’s so much more that can be done to deport people and stop the fake refugees. The more they fail to act, the more likely it is that Canadians will start asking for our own version of ICE.
Unless of course it’s election time. Then every American issue is a canadian one.
