        Obviously..immigrants have risked venturing into a new area/country and dont have much to lose...a new business is just one more risk for them

        Don't tell @realDonaldTrump That. He has bigger job creation aspirations like coal miners, newspaper delivery people and shoeshiners.

        Learn to read between the lines shitbird. Immigrants get huge tax breaks to buy failing convenience stores, motels and buy Semi's.

        Because the government has special loans and grant for these people that the rest of us can’t get and that’s what’s really pissing off people over immigration they get special treatment the rest of us can’t get

        That's because our education system indoctrinates kids to believe it's the government who should provide for them, not themselves. Immigrants only know a good work ethic to succeed.

        @JohnFPrato Ecxellent opportunity for Canada to move entire silicon valley crowd to BC. @realDonaldTrump gets his immigrants free country and Canada gets well deserved economy boost. Win win!!
