What happened? Canada said no thanks to a new province?

Nope. A change of heart is welcome today, tomorrow, or next week.
You’d rather her refuse to cooperate with ICE?

The Mayor of Denver is saying he will refuse and is willing to go to jail. My understanding is that this is a felony.
Homan says he''ll be glad to oblige.
I think Hochul might understand that Homan's serious. It would just take one subpoena.

There’s no law requiring local police to share immigration status with the feds.
Were you guys asleep 8 years ago?
Only non-witches get due process.

I didn't say anything about cooperation, though your comment suggested it.
Rather, Mayor Johnston (no, not Johnson) said he will interfere. There's a difference.
The mayor also takes heart that the people of Denver — not just the administration — would likely resist a mass deportation effort from federal forces.
“More than us having DPD stationed at the county line to keep them out, you would have 50,000 Denverites there,” Johnston said. “It’s like the Tiananmen Square moment with the rose and the gun, right? You’d have every one of those Highland moms who came out for the migrants. And you do not want to mess with them.”

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

They do not have to share immigration status. But they cannot hinder federal officers in the performance of their duties.

He looks like he'll do fine in prison.

That’s obvious bluster.
The real question is to what extent states and major cities will cooperate with the feds. I’m happy to see this attitude from Kochul.
I would expect to see some level of cooperation from Adams, for three reasons. He has really felt the burden of too many immigrants, he has political cover from Kochul, and he has another very strong reason to stay in Trump’s good graces. And then there’s the whole ex-cop thing too.
