			In Hakkaboy's defense, no one woman would ever buy a pallet of tampons. Are you kidding me?   
Unless you're planning on reselling these, that's a lot of pads. This would cause me to have suspicious thoughts with everything that is going on with remote births right now.

			So I’ve read in the papers that women here are bringing to China sanitation pads because they don’t trust the ones back home. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-pacific-37788670 
This bitch ain’t running a pregnancy ring, she’s just exploiting the situation with these pads and making money.

What you're proposing is similar to the American system where those with money get faster and better treatment than those without. Regardless of the payment, this takes away space from Canadian citizens. Our hospitals are overcrowded already.  PHOTOS: Tour of Richmond Hospital reveals inadequate environment https://www.richmond-news.com/news/p...ent-1.23160790 
Our rural population may be declining, but our urban population is growing at a rate that many cities are having a very hard time dealing with.        
Hahahaha! 
Okay there, champ. For years we were told that foreign money wasn't affecting our real estate, and that mainland gangsters weren't running millions through our casinos    
It's so sad that we trust our officials so little, that anecdotal evidence actually becomes a viable source. Regardless, the US found that there are more anchor babies born in the US, than natural births in 48 out of 50 states.     
Again, myself along with Malcolm Brodie think that your numbers are incorrect.     
This is where I see that you truly are part of the problem. It's the attitude of "Hey guy, everyone is cheating so why not me too?" |  Stat-wise, don't take my words for it. Google Birth Tourism Canada, in the news tab, every major news outlet has stats from a lot of years released by Statistic Canada or other official sources. I did my work when I posted. If you are too lazy to even Google, I got nothing for you. Can't argue with people who simply refuse to accept anything other than their own idea. (Trump much?    )  
I am an immigrant myself and I know first hand what it's like being an immigrant. Do I get mad because these babies had it too easy comparing to what I had to go through? (study, find a good job, fit the immigration criteria... etc)? Maybe a little bit... but as a current Canadian citizen, I have no more or less feeling about these anchor babies than refugees. I don't agree with what they are doing (either breaking or exploiting the law), but that's about it. If they did it and got CDN citizenship... welcome fellow CDN!  
They share a similar wish, looking to have a better opportunity in the future and they (or their parents) are willing to take their risks with legal problems and authorities. For that, I respect them... at least for their courage.  
Both side of the borders, people who seem to oppose anchor babies the most seem to be those who are conservatives+born/bred locally.  
If you are one of those, let me ask you one thing... are you part of any native/aboriginal group? If not... I can pretty much say to you, STFU!  
Your family was an immigrant one point in time. They did what they had to do to give better opportunities to their offsprings. They also took the risk... probably went through some holes they don't talk about even in the family. So, stop this "I'm better than these people because I'm a true Canadian" attitude. You know nothing about the COST of being a Canadian. You were lucky enough to be born with it. That's all... as far as a Canadian goes, you are no better than me, the anchor babies or the millions of Canucks out there.  
As for them taking our medical resources... again, get some stats and come back to me. It's less than 1% of all babies born in Canada... if our system can't even handle 1% over-capacity... I think we have a different problem here.  
In short, I don't agree with people breaking the law or exploit legal loopholes. HOWEVER, before they even spend a dime of taxes I paid working on a constitutional amendment to change this, they need to convince me that this actually IS a problem. Otherwise, I think the tax money I contributed to the Canadian society can be better spent and we have problems that have way higher priority than this one.

			Pretty sure the majority of us are children of first or second generation immigrants. We're not talking about immigrants. We're talking about people who come into the country either legally or illegally with the intention of dropping a kid for citizenship.
 I'm not sure why these two always get conflated.
 
 What I'm curious about, along the same lines, is what is being done about roxham road?
 There's been an increase of over 1000% of "irregular border crossers" since 2016. And with trump only continuing to tighten security, that number will inevitably continue to grow.
 What is Trudeau doing about it?
