This is a tired and useless aregument -- in order for someone to pass from Canada into the United States they must pass through AMERICAN customs. Whether they came through Canada or not US officials still had to allow them into the US. It is no different then if they had flown directly into the US -- Didn't most of them take up residency in the US as well? That requires a whole lot of paperwork if you aren't a citizen of the United States, including background checks. Don't blame our government for allowing them to enter Canada, when your government allowed them to enter the USA.
