The man, who supported President Donald Trump though he can't vote, says he "feels differently" now and blames the administration for his immigration plight.
“No, don’t hurt me, hurt those other people!”
- Dude isn't allowed to vote for legalization of marijuana, because he got caught possessing marijuana. Now I'm not sure how democracy is supposed to work, but I'm fairly certain he's supposed to be able to vote for representatives in a Democratic Republic to legalize such.
  Freedont
  ∆Edit: The way the lowerase n&t look like a broken m is pretty cool. Accidental yet pleasant
  
  Dude isn’t allowed to vote for legalization of marijuana, because he got caught possessing marijuana.
  Just to clarify, he's not able to vote because he's a Canadian citizen and not because of his past convictions.
- I assume you mean those dastardly brown people. Down with the brown! /s
No, not me! I voted for Trump. I'm white! I'm whiiiiitttteeeee!
Landry says he goes to Canada at least once a year and has never had a problem until now.
What's different this year? Say it Landry. Say it.
- There are woke policies this year that's why
- Nope, today, he's brown.
As a Canadian citizen, he couldn’t vote for president, but he supported Donald Trump.
“I was definitely all for ‘Make America Great Again,’ and having a strong, unified country, and a bright future for my five American children, but now I feel a little differently,” he said. “I’ve been torn from my family. My life has been disregarded completely.”
And here I was afraid there was no justice left in the world. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
- no no sir, those are not your American children. those are you illegal children whom will be deported soon.
  thanks dismantling of birthright citizenship!
  
  I still haven't wrapped my head around this one. Wasn't birthright enshrined in the constitution? How can it be dismantled?
- seems like a traitor to canada.
- maga has infected the minds of canadians, probably albertans.
  
  MAGA has infected the minds of people all around the world, and this is happening for over a decade now.
When asked about it he said, "I thought we were only going to oppress brown people. I'm white. This is completely unacceptable."
In 2004 and 2007, Landry faced charges of marijuana possession and driving with a suspended license, but he says he’s had no criminal record since then.
Hoo-boy, sounds like he was asking for it, one of them criminals I keep hearing about. Thin blue line, right folks?
- He was clearly an unacceptable danger to society with that kind of record! After all, people who broke laws once, forfeit all their rights, right?
  /s In case someone wants to take my crown.
  
  You sir, are not the world’s dumbest man. I doubt I am either, but I would bet I’m dumber than you.
  We should fight about it.
"Oh yea? If you liked US so much why'd u leave huh?????"
On the bright side, that's at least one fewer MAGAts in the country.
- Unfortunately, he came back home, and now we're stuck with him.
  
  ^goddammit
This is exactly what he wanted, but too stupid to realize it.
Lucky him.
Wah wah wah
🎵 O Canada, take back your MAGA lad 🎵
- His understanding is under sized
  Please ban him everywhere, both far and wide
Would be hilarious if his absolutely "heinous crime" was an unpaid parking ticket from 20 years ago. Can't just have those people wandering around breathing US freedom air.
- it was weed i think.
- Most parking tickets aren't crimes. They're something even less serious: civil infractions. Which makes it even funnier ... all those people who stole candy bars or got in bar fights, for example, they're the real criminals.
- What a garbage site, and garbage article. The first 14 paragraphs do nothing but repeat the headline and sell ad space.
  Here ya go:
  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal_Immigration_Reform_and_Immigrant_Responsibility_Act_of_1996
- There's a ton of fluff in that article and the way you wrote that comment means you didn't even read it or keeping up with what the Donvict is doing. The IIRIRA, according to the article, made deportation easier and harder to enter the country based on convictions. Convictions for a crime is key here because that means you had a trial by jury and found guilty after being accused of a crime. The Donvict declared arbitrarily that being illegal is a crime in a country where you are innocent until proven guilty. Nobody is even getting a trial and being sent to random countries. He made his own illegal loophole and using bits and pieces from every immigration law so people can't keep up. Also from the article, the republicans started the bill and the democrats went with it so let's cut the bullshit and inform yourself with less poorly written articles.
Canada is almost as right-wing as their neighbour.
I'm sure he can find many likeminded people there.
- "whatabout" something that has nothing to do with the story.
  
  Not a whatabout.
  
  this moron again
