Because a large corporation could put a factory on the boarder, bus in "Tourists" to do work.
Because we put up barriers to protect labor.
Pick one or all and order how you like.
The article is a little bit unclear, but it sounds like she wanted to cross into Canada and do the same thing, but Canada instructed her to return to the US and reapply in the proper category, and then the US presumably asked more questions and determined that her stay in the US was likely on the wrong visa too.
But I don't understand why the US wouldn't send her home to the UK? How many days of detention does it take to equal a flight home? Also seems weird that Canada wouldn't let her in, or offer to send her home, given Canada and UK have the same King.
But sure, if the ‘tourists’ are working for a company en masse, I can see how that could be a problem. The feds will probably do better going after the company, in my estimation. For some reason they don’t seem to do that very often.
Self-employment or bartering (as happened here), well, that doesn’t make sense to me to prosecute.
