Hankenhunter Posted January 12, 2019 #2 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Awesome news. Maybe the statue of liberty would like to move to Canada also. She must be getting tired of being flogged by Trump. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This photo is why Trump and the US has been brought into this. Trump has shown himself a lapdog to dictators as he helped cover up the journalist's murder so the girl didnt even bother to apply for asylum here because she knew it wouldnt be safe.

Trump ran cover for MDS after he had that journalist murdered , MDS is Saudi Royalty, that chick was running from Saudi Arabia. Hell and thats only thing Trump has done that may make someone seeking asylum think theyre not safe if a dictator comes callin: Trump 'working on' extraditing Islamic cleric Gulen from US to Turkey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to google it but Apparently Australia was taking too long to decide on her application so the UN forwarded it on to Canada. Australia slammed for dragging feet on Saudi teen’s asylum plea Im not sure where I would have rather landed if i were her: Sun and waves or cold but legal weed?

So, now tell me why she didn't go to Australia as planned? the Australian government took too long to decide and the Canadian Prime Minister is made of greater substance than the PM of Australia, so he offered a place in Canada effective immediately. Its indicative off just how politicians operate in my country. they haven't the courage to make any decision that might harm their chances of retaining office, instead they throw it out to the media and wait and hope there is no negative backlash. Bravo to Canada. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
