NO Canada! Migrants bused north from NYC for free are TURNING BACK after getting frustrated with the weather conditions with one blaming 'lots of snow'
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • The asylum seekers hail from Latin America, but are being bused from New York

  • Originally welcomed into The Big Apple, the foreigners last month voiced their discontent over an alternative shelter in Brooklyn offered by Mayor Eric Adams

  • The criticisms spurred the mayor to announce last week that the city would buy bus tickets for newcomers who would prefer to live north in neighboring Canada

#2 I don't think marching them north into Canada in the middle of winter is 'welcomed'.

Ah, a flesh trader, like his ancestors. NYC®

#4 There was an old takeoff of the Jeff Foxworthy "You might be a..." bit that went around Pittsburgh when I lived there:

"You might be from Pittsburgh if you go around in February in a pair of shorts and a parka."

#5 They don't call it Norte America for nothing. What did they expect? Palm trees and sandy beaches?

#6 Lots of people do not know, if you tried to sleep outside at 70 F without any kind of blanket, you might very well get hypothermia.

#7 True story: I once upon a time worked with a Vietnamese helicopter pilot brought here after the war.
Le said "I was asked where I wanted to go. I'm just a dumb kid from Vietnam, what have I ever heard of? Hollywood! Guy tells me we got three Hollywoods, California, Florida, and Minnesota. I picked 'the last one'. Whoo boy, I didn't know there was that much snow in the whole world!"
