http://www.cbc.ca/news/trending/canada-us-wall-border-scott-walker-jokes-1.3210184Our skates are sharpened, we're coming for their cheese!
158,000 Wisconsin jobs depend on trade &investment with Canada #scottwalker 's #CanadaWall put em at risk
I do agree with Governor #Walker that "Canada Wall" would be a sweet punk rock band name.
So Scott Walker wants a border wall with Canada? I don't think it will work. They're used to climbing over walls.

does that mean if Canada wants one, we have to pay for it? Just the border with Alaska is longer than the Southern Boarder.

I would like to see it up to keep American guns out of Canada... I do not want that culture here.
The wall will probably be shoddy like his tower in Toronto.

People dont't even want the condos in them.
The two plaintiffs will act as test cases for the 22 other, similar, cases and are seeking damages ranging from about $200,000 to $1 million, based on their individual losses.
Affidavits filed so far on behalf of buyers Andrew Lee, 45, of Richmond Hill and Sarbit Singh, 51, of Milton, paint a detailed picture of how the costly Trump units the most expensive condos per square foot in Toronto back in 2007 were marketed like Hollywood gold to naïve, first-time investors who have since racked up tens of thousands of dollars in losses.
The cases claim a gross misrepresentation by many involved in the glitzy, oft-delayed hotel project at Bay and Adelaide. That includes businessman and TV personality, Donald Trump, as well as the major backers of the more than $393 million project, Talon International Development Inc., its chairman Alex Shnaider and former president and CEO Val Levitan.

"Good, it'll keep the guns out"
ETA: I suppose unless it's built to the same standard as the Trump tower, LOL.

Keep it up, GOP bozos. Nobody cares about your proposed wall.

if that a**bite got into the White House, there would surely be a mass exodus of folks in the US trying to get the heck out and change citizenship, I might be one of them.
