No, I'm not happy with that many staying. There' is another percentage who take advantage of the free health care that our Hospitals must offer anyone who enters (thus raising rates for the rest of us). Then they must all be allowed to go to public schools regardless of their Illegal status (our school system has an estimated 400 of these children attending our schools). This is one reason we have to build another high school and yet another elementary school!

With an ALL welcome policy, and no threat of being exported, the problems mentioned about have become worse and worse each year. My first desire is for the Government to do SOMETHING!
