    Injustice At The Canadian Border

     

    Hello My name is Jerry Lee I am from New Philadelphia I am a normal citizen, who met a girl over the internet and she has since become my girlfriend and is now my fiancée, and she now lives in Canada. She is not a Canadian citizen and when we made the plan for me to move to canada I could not find any help in getting to Canada so I decided to get a passport and buy a bus ticket and go because I want to be with her.I tried to go on the 4h of July weekend and I had just enough money for the ticket, but I was promised a job when I got there the company told me to come and when I got there they would interview me and basically I had the job. Well I went and bought a ticket and at greyhound they told me that I would have to buy another ticket on into edmonton that they would only take me into winnepeg. Well I got to the border and they started asking me the questions that they ask at the border. Then they took me into another room and told me that they would not allow me into canada because I only had a one way ticket and they they expected me to have $1500.00 in my pocket to take care of myself while I was there. My intention was to go for three weeks and look at the job situation, Make sure that everything was going to be cosher and that I would be able to make a go at living in Canada and then go from there. They treated me like a terrorist I feel that the way they treat normal cizens is an outrage, I bet that they will allow a terroeist through the Canadian border before they will a law abideing citizen. Now since all I had was the money to get there I am stuck at the city mission which next week my time is up there. Can you please do something to help me get justice? Oh also I am a ordained independant Bishop

    are they turning clegy men of God away as well?

     

    If you are an official of America or Canada  and or have the power to help me , if you have the heart and would like to make a donation to help me  I am currently homless due to this situation, or if you are a canadian citizen and would like to help me with cizenship please email me.
