They are currently commonwealth (upgraded from a US Protectorate).

We don't need people to come here in droves, especially developers,

Here's the dilio: keep your skill set up to date, and watch trends,
"Illegal immigration is a problem."
A very complex one! The "gather them all up and deport|jail|shoot them"
approach is not even the start of a solution.

This is a little different also. People that came to school here had to go
through a process and were allowed to come in. That is different than a van
filled with 23 programmers sneaking across the border in the middle of the
night.

I'm asking what if it were skilled laborers coming across in droves? Like what

you're seriously asking us to consider this from the angle of skilled
