That tweet you posted it along the lines of Harper's desperate "barbaric cultural practices hotline" B.S. "Old stock" Canadians need to rise up!

But in this case, as you point out, it also pits legal vs. illegal immigrants. And that works with some people, too. I've spoken with legal immigrants who say, "I went through all the proper channels and I had to wait several years for citizenship. They shouldn't be able to jump to the front of the line."
