No, Johnny, not you; but Juan and Juanita from waaaaayyyyyy down south, Mexico way. If traveling to Canada from a location in Mexico, Mexican nationals will be required to have a visa to legally enter our northern neighbor. It seems that those that can afford a ticket purchase figured that paying a 'coyote' to get across the Rio Grande is an expensive hassle; it's much better to fly into Ontario, Montreal, or Vancouver and take an Uber ride across the border to El Dorado where the streets are paved with gold.
Under pressure from Washington, et.al., the Liberal Government of Justin Trudeau found it easy to make the call. Conservatives have been applying pressure against Mr..Trudeau and his government recently in an attempt to make changes. Immigration is just one area where they have had some success. Who wants to the country that leaks immigrants to America? Not a good look, no matter who's in charge in Ottawa.
And this is just one of many issues bubbling up across the the Canadian realm. What else? How about the national science laboratory of Canada, for starters.
