They use resources that are paid for with tax money.  They do not
pay taxes.  If I change states I have (depending on the state) 30
to 60 days to register  my car in the new state in order for the
states to get the road taxes.  They live here for six months and
never register their cars or pay road use taxes.  And, it would
not surprise me to find out that when they return to Canada the
first thing they do is file for all their sales tax back.

And, as I said, even when we were being told the border was closed
the snow-birds seemed to have no problem coming across as evidenced
by the number of cars with Canadian license plates on on the highways
around where I live.  A major snow-bird path.
