Trump: Canadians to Be Fingerprinted at Borders April 2025

Trump is preparing a new travel rule that could force Canadians planning to stay in the country for more than 30 days to register their information with the US government and submit to fingerprinting. Effective 11 Apr, affected people would have to create an account with USCIS and schedule an appointment for fingerprinting as part of a background check. Canadian snowbirds began selling their Florida homes before this lunacy because of rising insurance costs. AI calculations suggest that the Sunshine State will lose billions of dollars of lost revenue from these Canadians. Real estate vultures will no doubt be taking advantage of lower condo prices. Trump is treating Canada like an enemy country, not a potential 51st state.

Thank you Republicans for voting in a dysfunctional, unsuccessful man (and Russian tool) who has turned America into a Pariah State within two months. You voted against your economic interests just to make sure a white man would sit in the White House.

So much winning!

He also promised lower prices. Guess that includes for people whose 401Ks are falling like Trump's geriatric body.

Suckers fell for his act. Unfortunately, all Americans are in the same boat he's determined to sink.

Hi AmericanUnity. White racists listening to hate radio and watching Faux News were told over and over that they were losing their country to the minorities. Never did these white supremacists realize that they lost the country to the oligarchs. Now thanks to these rednecks and tools, we'll all be poor together.

"But I want my gun rights! Women can't have abortions! Migrants stole my job on the farm picking apples! Are those cat-eating Moslem Haitians moving in to my neighborhood?" ad nauseum.

I'm glad this new policy will not affect me. It might bother a few people though.

Hi Redial: Years ago I used to drive to Toronto or Montreal with just a driver's license. About 1984, my friends drove up as I slept in the backseat. When I woke up, I was already passed the border. The CBSA officer didn't bother to wake me. Now we are slowly creeping towards a DMZ at our northern border. Thanks Kim Jong Trumpf!

That was all I needed until after 911 then I had to take my passport. I know a lot of people who have property in Montana where they like to spend the summer but it's not a big deal to drive back home for a few days every 29 days to avoid this nonsense. People with property in Florida or Arizona would probably have to fly back, which would be kind of a pain.

Trump definitely represents the Ugly American side of America. Plenty more just like him. Usually, they've been kept in the background, as warning and comedic relief. It's a deeply ugly look and we are going to be stuck with it for years to come, thanks to this imbecilic oaf and his deeply stupid investors and moronic hat wearing MAGAt trash "base."

Does that mean we're great again?

#8 | Posted by snoofy at 2025-03-13 07:54 AM

Yes, of course! Don't you feel the ambience of success and greatness permeating the atmosphere since the coronation? We have no economic anxieties, global pandemics, home foreclosures, medical bankruptcies, unemployment problems, or less safe skies. And the US is following the Dale Carnegie approach to international diplomacy, keeping allies and making new friends along the way. Everything is great now!

Someone suggested that Trumpf is pissed at Canada because his Slovenian anchor wife planted a real kiss on handsome young PM Justin Trudeau while Melanoma doesn't even give her husband a decent peck.

Republicans have been like magicians since Reagan, waving social wedge issues with one hand to distract from their real goals: massive transfers of wealth to people who don't need more via tax cuts they also didn't need.

How long before Trumpvoters admit the obvious: Trump is psychotic and completely unfit for any part of the job.

Funny anecdote (true):

In the 1960's, country singer Faron Young's tour bus driver took speed and drove all the way from Key West to 20 miles south of the North Dakota border, without sleeping, in February.

They pulled the bus over and switched drivers to get across the border. The driver, a southerner who was "country as homemade soap," crawled in his bunk.

When they got to the border, an immigration officer boarded the bus. He woke the driver, who was sound asleep in his bunk, and shined a flashlight in his face.

"Sir, do you have any ID?," he asked. The driver (remember he was a hick) replied, "'bout what?" "ID" being a hillbilly shortcut for "idea."

The immigration officer proceeded to ask if there were drugs, illegal alcohol, etc on the bus, with negative replies.

Still peeved, the immigration officer asked, "sir, is there pornography on the bus?"

The driver replied, "do you see a record player ANYWHERE on this bus?!!" They refused entry to the hick tour bus driver.

They had to turn the bus around. That hick driver had to spend 2 weeks in a little motel in the middle of nowhere North Dakota (temps below zero during the day, -40 at night) while Young and the band toured Canada. The only supplies he had were a bottle of whiskey and all the snacks that were on the bus. No restaurants or stores nearby.

Trumpy is a wimp.

You really wanna own them ? Then implement multiple strip searches cavity checks and 3 layers of health checks at the border. Can't trust that commie socialist health care system they got you know.

Trying to take care of their citizens health with publicly funded Universal Healthcare!

Bah!

Commies.

I think Combover Quisling is more jealous of the way Vanky was eye banging Trudeau at their first meeting. As to this article the same is true of Snowbirds who visit CA. My Dad and his wife have had a nice park model trailer at a 55+ park near Palm Springs for 20 years. He passed last year, and she's now trying to sell it because all her Canadian friends that she hung out with have abandoned the place. It started the day after the election and has picked up steam.

Trudeau gave Melania a raging case of screaming thigh sweats and Trump has been holding a grudge ever since.

The Canadians were who rescued residential real estate in Lee and Collier counties in 2009-2011. It's a long but easy drive down from Mississauga to Fort Myers or Naples, and banks were just about giving new depositors a condo when new customers opened a $5,000 checking account. Sales were in cash, and TD Bank opened many branches to serve their customers. That so many Canadians would leave Florida after so long there is shameful.

In my visits to Toronto, Montreal and Victoria I've encountered nothing but polite, friendly people and its embarrassing to see other Americans abuse their next door neighbors. The tariffs will hurt Canadians for no reason. I hope the pain is double for every MAGA dork out there. I'll gladly suffer if my Trump-loving countrymen suffer more...

Canada has good relations with China and India... among others. Canada has been working on opening more of its markets with China. China and Mexico also have good relationships... Canada and Mexico... Mexico will pick ex-pats we lose and modernize some of their barrios.

I wouldn't be surprised if China isn't playing a role in this to extract Canada from the US ------. Putz is probably filling his fawning Trumpanzee's ear with expansionistic -------... while isolating us.

Remember when Bushturd2 went into the "We'll go it alone" silliness as he was ramping up to war with Iraq?

Putz used to call Trumpanzee "a shiney object".

Canadians are already opting to vacation elsewhere. Dementia Donnie is making all the right moves during Spring Break, LOL

RepubicLoWNs wanted this, let's see them sort it out.

In Canada, if you are flying to the US, you go through customs at the airport.

Usually in mid March, many college students in Canada fly to AZ or Florida for Spring Break

This is the US customs hall at Pearson airport in Toronto on Saturday.

We are about 72 hours away from Trump claiming Canadians are "stealing the geese".

I still do. All you need is Real ID.

Used to love going up to Exhibition Place to see concerts, the CNE, Blue Jays and Raptors games.

Took the family to see a Blue Jays game last July. Loved it. Had a great Smoked Maple Old Fashioned at a restaurant, got the recipe from the bartender and traded stories about our favorite whiskey's. The orange ------- has to ruin everything he touches.

One day his grave will be the largest unisex restroom on the planet.

The Premier of British Columbia is considering tolls for the US truck traffic that drive through his province en route to Alaska and back. And the next logical federal step for Ottawa would be for American citizens to be fingerprinted at the Canadian POEs. And sadly in Jan 2025, the US and Canada quietly signed an agreement that shares information on each other's permanent residents. The agreement impacts potentially millions of permanent residents in Canada and even more in the US.

This means the data in America's "electronic gulag" just got bigger.
