It has been a big deal for a long time. Remember the media and government control what and when you hear it.
My personal feeling on it is this.
If you come to this country illegally then you have proven you will break laws. You have no allegiance to this country and there for your children will be raised to have allegiance to your home country. Those illegal aliens are cutting the line. No different than you standing in the line at the bank and someone coming in after and going straight to the teller making you wait even longer.
Yes there are illegal aliens from every country here in the us and I do not discriminate when I say leave and come back through the proper channels. If you don't want to do it that way then stay in your own country and make it better for you and your descendants.
Any law that places criminals ahead of those who have chosen to take the time to do it properly is not welcomed by me. This happened in 1986 and we were told that it would not happen again and now look where we are.

Thanks!!!for your honest and precise post...
that's exactly what I want to hear...For me and my children came here Legally,,thanks, for my ex-husband Who gave me that entitlement to be a US citizen..It's unfair for US/legal immigrant that WE been through a lot of paperworks just to came to this country..while some ppl just came illegally, then acquire so many benefits that I can't have cuz I have a house and a job..but after so many yrs. that they lived here, have jobs and kid/kids I think govt..would give them liniency to have that entitlement..afterall they been born here..But after the new Law is passed then, that's the time that they have to be tough on immigration...------ This poll is Archived ------

My feelings about this is here:
No matter what country a person goes to it should be done legally. If you go to a foriegn country, you should take time to learn that language as well. Now! If an individual goes into a country illegally and has a child, That should not give them the right to stay legally. The parent is illegal so therfore the child is as well. IMO

Confused by the Birthright title
But after reading a bit got the general drift.
Sadly this is a worldwide problem as folk from the third world are desperate to better the lot of their families.
Economic migration is not new and it comes in waves. America had a huge Scots/Irish influx around the mid to late 18th century as the Highland clearances and the Potatoe famine bit. that was after the initial lot who helped kick start the 13 "colonies" And since then many waves from Europe as did The other developed nations. America got the most and Canada and Australia got more "Brits" and britain got the same as America only on a far smaller scale...Now all the worls wants to move for the same reasons and developed countries have no need of them hence the Closed sign.
Now we also have the Refugee problem and they are also moving for different reasons and do need help but what can we in developed countries do.
Well we all have Quotas and cannot for various reasons keep the illegals out, but should we morally especially in countries where immigration was the life blood of our nation as in the case of America .....What was the quote ..." Give me you poor huddled masses etc.....we do as Humankind have a duty of care for each other but can it be done at the rate of todays need I doubt it.
So all the developed countries should set levels to suit and all folk who do not make the quota be returned to the country of origin ....But PROVEN refugees are a different case but as developed countries we could and should take a fair share of these folk from all over and allocate by need a homeland for them ...But this will never happen as they cross many borders in their desire to get to the country of choice in Europe often the Uk and some of the scandanavian countries who have very liberal benefit systems and these folk get housed fed and taken care of by the state....At some point the system will overload and then the fun will start we need to take action now but not unilaterally but as an planned system for all developed countries As aleays JMO

Your right about that...but some ppl somehow manage to stay in this country even their illegal..bec they have some relatives, friends, or employers, that tolerated this manner...that they could sneak in some ppl through tourist visas then they stayed here even their visas expired...They don't get caught bec they hide...
I agree with you about going to any coutries with legal papers bec that's what I did and my boys...

Liza that is what makes the world go round. A healthy difference of opinion is good, I might not always agree with anyone but I defend their right to have their opinion very strongly.despite of our differences in opinions when we post on different topics...but I am glad to hear your opinion...
Folk are entitled to have their say and should always make their point to all. Nice to see we for a change are in agreement
We may have a difference of opinion again in the future but I always respect your opinion, mine may be different and as always it is only mine and it could well be wrong but that is to my mind the good thing on here folk can have their say and the rest of us can make our mind up who has the best point.I look forward to the next time we are in agreement probably in the dim and distant future

The OAS program is non-contributory and is based solely on age and residence in Canada after the age of 18. The ten-year residence rule is consistent with many other countries that have residence or contribution requirements associated with their national pensions to ensure that benefits are given in proportion to years of residence or affiliation with their pension programs. With this in mind, it is felt that the current ten-year residence requirement represents a balance between a reasonable contribution to Canadian society and the right to receive a lifelong pension.
It is estimated that reducing the ten-year eligibility requirement to three years would cost over $700 million annually in additional OAS and Guaranteed Income Supplement benefits. Given that the OAS program is funded entirely from general tax revenues, this would be costly and place an additional burden on the Canadian taxpayer..
Bill C-428 will allow recent immigrants to apply for OAS in 3 years instead of the existing 10.
Right now you have to have lived in Canada for 10 years in order to qualify for Old Age Security. She wants the time reduced to 3 years. Thousands could come to Canada when they are 62 years old, never having worked or contributed to this country's tax system, etc and qualify for full Old Age Security benefits. 10 years minimum is reasonable - 3 is not!
It is time Canada looked after it's vets and long-term citizens before tossing OUR hard-earned money around on people who have no right to this money, never having paid taxes or contributed to our economy. If a family wishes to bring elderly relatives here and are willing to waive their own right to collect these funds in order that the elderly relatives can receive them ... fine. Otherwise, do not expect the Canadian taxpayers to do it.
There are too many people abusing the generosity of the Canadian people.. We need to stop this NOW. We, our children and our grand children currently owe the global investment community over $500 billion dollars ... the sum of our accumulated National Debt that is never publicized.

Canada Pensions...
Only in Canada
* It is interesting to know that the federal Government of Canada allows :
A monthly pension of : $1,890.00 to a simple refugee
plus : 580.00 in social aid
==========
A grand total of : $2,470.00 monthly
X 12 months
==========
$28,920.00 annual income
· By comparison, the Old Age Pension of a senior citizen who has contributed to the development of Our Beautiful Big Country during 40 or 50 years, CANNOT receive more than :
Amount/month $1,012.00 in Old Age Pension and Guaranteed Income Supplement
X 12 months
============
$12,144.00 annual income
A difference of : $16,776.00 per year
* Perhaps our senior citizens should ask for the Status of Refugees instead of applying for Old Age Pension.
* Let us send this message to as many Canadians as possible, and maybe the allowance of refugee could then be reduced to $1,012.00, and that of our Canadian pensioners raised to $2,470.00 per month. (who actually deserve it) the money that they have been paying in income taxes for 40 or 50 years,

what is right and what is wrong; everybody has an opinion and this is democracy but it is so weak and so dividing. our country is an immigrant country. remember when the europeans came and terrorized the people of this land? they terrorized as long and as much as they could until they were stopped. if a human being is born within the jurisdictional boundaries of our great nation he/she is a citizen of our country our descendants wrote it in the constitution AND SAYING OTHER THAN THAT IS CONSIDERED TREASON. Oviously the constitution will be modified according to the needs of the majority of its citizens. IT is way to easy to take an opinion that damages our country by saying "you are not a citizen because bla, bla, bla." if you can prove legally you are a citizen of this country i say welcome to the club and if not i am not going to be indiferent to you because; i love my country and i know that you have come here to make this nation greater than it already is; i also know the incredible challenges that our nation faces for the coming century and i know that taking a dividing position right now is just not smart. If we want a future we must work together and negotiate our differences i am not going to spread more hate in our great america; NOT ON MY WATCH; NOT ON YOUR WATCH; NOT IN MY AMERICA.

thanks! for the input..but I am not in opposite side yor talking about...I am here to learn more of individauls opinion...I am from other country/Philippines, but been Naturalized through immigration from my ex-husband...but I did all duties that American born citizen should have such as; jury duty,vote, and canvasser for a politicians, and pay my taxes... I am against with the ppl that came here illegally. when I, and my two boys..came over we did all the necessary paperworks.. it's not fair for us, that the illegals get more benefits from the govt. that we have...You're right about European countries.that they tried to Dominate the Indians-which were the one's that were natives, and have the right of the land..

IT is way to easy to take an opinion that damages our country by saying "you are not a citizen because bla, bla, bla." if you can prove legally you are a citizen of this country i say welcome to the club and if not i am not going to be indiferent to you because; i love my country and i know that you have come here to make this nation greater than it already is; i also know the incredible challenges that our nation faces for the coming century and i know that taking a dividing position right now is just not smart. If we want a future we must work together and negotiate our differences i am not going to spread more hate in our great america; NOT ON MY WATCH; NOT ON YOUR WATCH; NOT IN MY AMERICA.
So your opinion is that it's ok to break the laws of this land by entering illegally. Try going to any other country on this tiny little spec and have your child born there. Most likely they will not even let you in if you are within 3 months of giving birth. If you manage to get in by some stroke of luck and have the child guess what your child will not be a citizen of that country. It will be reported to the nearest embassy of your country and it's citizenship will be in your home country. It will not be entitled to any benefits that are reserved for only the citizens of that country.
I'm all for legal immigration. Bring em on. Learn the language and customs. Integrate and add to but don't expect me to take on your customs.
Who is the hypocrite now?
Is it the ones that want some sensible control to the entry or the ones that deny what the seek here?
Your turn. Better make it good.

tomcatwarne: my mother was born in America, I don't know if that gives me dual nationality
It really depends on the situation.
My future x Mother-in-law was born in Mexico. She immigrated legally and got her citizenship many years later. When she went to the swearing in she swore an oath to the us and was immediately stripped of her Mexican citizenship. It is fair and normal for that to happen because if you want the benefits you need to have some allegiance to the country of which you choose to reside. The oath of citizenship here requires you support and defend the Constitution Of The United States. You cannot do that if you have an allegiance to any other country.
My future x brother-in-law was born in Mexico. His father was an American citizen his mother was a Mexican citizen at the time. He had dual nationality up until his 18th birthday upon which he had to choose one or the other.

@ Atract...I agree with the "English language only speaking, while we were in public domain...then learn the American customs too"..nothing wrong with that!!..
I believe in a saying says"when your in Rome,Do what the Romans do"... 
but I would say, still keeping our own language while were at home...and our values too...That's what we foriegners being naturalized we have unique abilities to speak several languages and know the differences between values...that's what makes a dual citizenship beneficial to some of US...------ This poll is Archived ------

yes and that is what I meant. Keep all government forms in one language. It cost the taxpayers 3-5 times as much to do stuff because we have to make sure there is the same paperwork in every language available. I have no problem keeping your native tongue but there is a time and place for it's use. Other wise as the Statue of liberty says bring em on but in smaller numbers no pushing.

Actractorguy: It has been a big deal for a long time. Remember the media and government control what and when you hear it.
My personal feeling on it is this.
If you come to this country illegally then you have proven you will break laws. You have no allegiance to this country and there for your children will be raised to have allegiance to your home country. Those illegal aliens are cutting the line. No different than you standing in the line at the bank and someone coming in after and going straight to the teller making you wait even longer.
Yes there are illegal aliens from every country here in the us and I do not discriminate when I say leave and come back through the proper channels. If you don't want to do it that way then stay in your own country and make it better for you and your descendants.
Any law that places criminals ahead of those who have chosen to take the time to do it properly is not welcomed by me. This happened in 1986 and we were told that it would not happen again and now look where we are.
just my $0.02
we have the same problem here in the uk.abide by thier own laws.which they get away with, and then try to imposse them on us,if we dont like it .they throw us out.My personal feeling on it is this.
