I will always judge my society for the bad things it institutionalizes.
There's no reason for entry to be hostile. It's quite hostile, even coming from Canada. The US would be fine if we had the same entry standards as Canada and an open border...
We could also rather politely control immigration by having a solid system for verifying employment eligibility and fining the pants off of employers that violate it. There's literally no reason to run around policing the individuals working without authorization.

... like my comment says Americans do and doesn't oppose?

Does my comment say something against this?

Did you reply to the wrong comment? Or did you think that me saying "Be pragmatic in viewing a country on a global scale instead of just having this self-serving need to constantly insult yourselves" was saying "America did nothing wrong!"
Problems should be solved inwards, not by treating human rights like a pissing contest.
Instead of immediately going "We could do what country X does, look at their outcomes!!!!", realize country X is not your country, and realize, you don't need country X's actions to frame what's wrong with your own country's problems.
The problem with immigration isn't "We're not doing what Canada is doing", the problem with immigration is you're not treating human being like human beings.
It's much easier to justify solutions to the latter than the former because moment you turn this into "look at your sibling do this right!!" you shift the focus from the real problem, mistreating people, to a fake "problem", "other countries are doing better than us", to which it's easy to say "so many others are doing worse".
Other country's actions and outcomes should be a catalyst to examine application in your own country at most, not some kind of goalpost like Americans love to treat them.
