According to Reuters, Trump is preparing to remove legal status for 240000 Ukrainian immigrants, following which they will likely be deported back to a war zone.

The US continues her slide into global irrelevance, abandoning respect for democracy, the rule of law, and human rights.

It is the duty of the countries that continue to respect democracy and human rights, including Canada, to prevent these people from being forced back into a war torn country.

Canada should simplify and expedite refugee claims from Ukraine, Palestine, Sudan, Myanmar.
- Palestine
  Then they'd need to admit Israel is doing something wrong.
  
  We should.
  But crucially, we don't actually have to, to let people in. We just quote the UN agencies citing the humanitarian catastrophe, and that's it.
  
  FWIW, Carney, the likely next Liberal leader has expressed support for Palestine which is a step in the right direction.

  I'm concerned that outright condemnation of Israel's genocide would make his chance of winning the Canadian Liberal leadership race and becoming PM much more difficult with the level of anti-semitic accusations that leaders who do so suddenly face. It's such a toxic political climate right now...
  Canada has admitted far, far more Ukranians than Palestinians when we should be urgently admitting both.
  
  With us potential stop following the us due to trump we may finally admit it
Why don’t the American people, as the largest people, simply eat trump, who is not all that large? I don’t understand
- It is true what they say... Women are from Omicron Persei 7, men are from Omicron Persei 9.
- Considering how they typically can't shut the fuck up about 2A, yet here we are - the very type of scenario why that exists and they're radio silent...
  
  No no, they aren't silent. They're cheering.
- Most 2A people are sad sacks of shit who also support trump. On top of that its hard to throw the first stone when the first to throw will lose the most.
Ugggh I really wish our housing situation was more sorted out so we could reach out to Americans looking to escape their new dictatorship.
At this point nothing short of the government getting into the business of home building is required.

  And they absolutely should.
Bring them to Canada.

  Thanks!
Trump to revoke legal status for 240,000 Ukrainians as US steps up deportations
- Illegal or legal doesn't make a difference, eh?
  Voters should be ashamed.
  
  We are. Even though a lot of us didn’t vote for him, the shame remains.
Quick! Over to Mexico!
That's one way to bolster the ranks.
Also, here's a really awkward picture of two people in an "embrace."
