They could have had consideration and gave some sort of warning. Harsh.

Reason seems clear as does why there was no warning and it was not just done to Mexico.

"Immigration Minister Jason Kenney defended the imposition of new visa requirements on Mexican and Czech citizens Tuesday in a bid to stem a surge in refugee claims by visitors from those countries.

"We're not talking about the kinds of people that are living in UN refugee camps by the millions who are victims of war and state-sponsored persecution," Kenney told CBC in an interview.

"It's an insult to the important concept of refugee protection to allow it be systematically violated by people who are overwhelmingly economic immigrants."

Mexico is now the No. 1 source of refugee claims, with the number almost tripling to more than 9,400 since 2005, the Immigration Department said in a release Monday. The figure represents one-quarter of all claims made. About 90 per cent of the claims are rejected.

The Czech Republic ranks second with nearly 3,000 refugee claims filed since the visa requirement for visitors from that country was lifted in October 2007. That compares with fewer than five claims in 2006, the department said.

Visitors from the two countries will have to satisfy visa officers that their visit to Canada will be temporary and they won't overstay their approved time. They'll also need to have enough money to cover their stay, be in good health, have no criminal record and pose no security risk.

Kenney said no prior notice was given of the new visa rule to avoid a flood of people trying to enter Canada before the change."

Thanks Suzybell, Rocio and Darren, as we said here all of us, was suddenly, with not advise and even you can listen in the video the people saying that they had already tickets for the next day and this was done from one day to another.

Here in Mexico, as you could see in the video too the ones in this big line were PEOPLE not junk or trash. But well....the embassy was in it´s right as YOU LISTENED IN THE VIDEO too, but you know, letting people know before, for being prepared was a better idea.

Sorry I don´t answer more in this news but my news is hijacked :(

Hey baby baby, I see your stray mangy dog follower is at it again. It must be lost. The dog would do well to understand that the reason for Mexicans seeking other countries as their homes is partially due to American companies sending work to other countries, all the way across the globe. Not very smart to treat a neighbor that way. And we all know that if a person treats their neighbor poorly, there will eventually be problems.

Also another thing to note, is that it's odd that Mexico (being a place of strong family values) had been under such scrutiny and attacks.

The devil had been hard at work, but the devil is a punk and fails miserably. ALWAYS.
