They don't buy homes.  They tow them behind them on I81.  Or, they live
in trailer parks and rented apartments.

So do Americans who live here.  And we still have to pay income taxes
to the federal government.  And pay to register our cars which supports
the state infrastructure needed for all those drivers to co-exist. (It
is interesteing that if I move to another state I have 30 days to get a
new drivers license and re-register my vehicles but some Canadians spend
more than half their time down here and never do this.)

As do Americans.  Who still have to pay income taxes to the US, not
Revenue Canada.

Bullcrap.  They can't tow their great big campers or drive their Winebagos
to Bermuda.  Personally, I think visas should be required. They should be
good for no more than 21 days and the holder should have to return to Canada
to renew it.

Like Isaid, it doesn't matter wether you come from the south or the north,
a leech is a leech.
