Cam'ron and Vado Barred Entry Into Canada

Yesterday, Cam'ron and Vado were preparing to spread their Harlem cheer to a crowd of fans in Montreal when border patrol agents barred them from entering the country. Citing both rappers' criminal pasts, the duo was stuck at a Toronto border crossing and eventually told to turn around.

"Been sittin in customs for the last hour, hopefully they let me threw. Stay tuned," tweeted Cam during the incident. "They just told [Vado] he has a felony, he cant come in da country and my dj either. I'm waitin to here to see what they tell me." After he was denied entry Killer Cam explained why. "This some real bulls---!! " he wrote. "We just was here a couple months ago! Sayin i had machine gun in 03. F---- makin s--- up."

Cam then sent out a hilarious video to dwell on the situation a bit more. He was clearly in a bummed-out mood. "See the flag," he said. "They shut me down... Oh, man. There goes the flag. This the country that did it to us. Montreal, we sorry, Toronto customs stuck us here."

The ban from Canada was also particularly odd as both Cam and Vado performed in Toronto over the summer at a party called The Caribana Bash.

qapla5. Your constant resorting to name-calling clearly demonstrates the weakness of your position. There is nothing racist about it, as any clear-headed person can see. The fact is that it was Muslims who were responsible be 9/11, Muslims who are responsible for the vast majority of terrorism in the world today, and Muslims who follow a violent, hateful religion that has instructed its followers to kill or at least horrifically subjugate all unbelievers, to kill apostates, and to abuse women. This has nothing to do with race or the amount of melanin one has in their hide. It has to do with the free will choice to follow a violent, false religion. It can be said that every Muslim is a potential terrorist, because all it takes for any given Islamist to become one is the choice to be a devout Muslim. It is built right into their belief system. There can be peaceful Muslims, but it is only because they have found they cannot live by the tenets of their own religion. They are peaceful IN SPITE of their belief system, not because of it. There are undeniably certain countries that are terrorist producers, and these countries must have their citizens at least screened meticulously if not outright denied entry to the US. If you enjoy being sexually molested by the TSA, go right ahead and get your jollies, but I prefer a method that actually does work, such as is used in Israel, without being molested by some TSA pervert. When has the US let in any terrorists? How about every single terrorist on the planes that went down on 9/11 for a start? Your ignorance on this matter is astounding, and I suspect you may be one of these Muslims who wants PC attitudes to keep the way clear for more of you to enter the country and cause harm. At the very least you are a Muslim sympathizer whose foolishness will get people killed.

It's funny how these racists are so in love with our culture, that they hate it so much. There is no hate without some degree of love. You people love us. Just admit it! You take time out of your "important" lives, to pay our website a visit? How sweet! We get it. You're just upset at the fact that we're keeping urban music relevant. It's okay. We make money in the BILLIONS annually, and it hurts your puny little egos. Your OPINION that Rap isn't music is voided by the fact that you bop your heads to it, dance to it at the clubs (oh, let me guess. you sit down when that rap song suddenly comes on, right?), and you take the time to YouTube our videos. You say we should go back to Africa (blah blah blah), when your pigment-deficient asses came from Europe. Let's just say we'll go back when you go back first. You enjoy the many benefits of black people (google what black people have invented), entertainment and otherwise, then turn around and try to bash us.......online (lame)! lol

Bottom line, you use these forums as an outlet to vent frustrations through your own inadequacies. Because, you all know that you'd have your lily white asses HANDED to you, if you'd ever decided to say these things in our faces. Pick the right black to say these things to. You'll see what happens. lol I bet EVERY one of you powder puffs have black associates at your jobs, black neighbors in your towns, black people who work wherever it is that you patronize, etc., but speak to them in a different light than you do on here. The fact that you people can't express yourselves this way on a face-face basis with a black person, states cowardice, and therefore irrelevance. I laugh every time you retards (racists whites) show us how important we truly are to you, by visiting and littering our websites with your disgusting/unwanted presence. It just tickles me pink! If you albino apes would invest this much time in educating yourselves on what society would be like UNIFIED, you'd probably be out somewhere doing something positive right now. Instead, you release your anger on a website. We ("minorities") understand.

Just ask yourself this. Do you see a legion of racist blacks visiting YOUR websites, when a country singer cheats on his wife with his 3rd cousin? NO! LMAO Or any website speaking solely on whites??? NO! Our hearts aren't filled with hate, other than the hate you white people have instilled. We have no interest in your people as much as you do in ours. We're not in denial of our flaws. We have many! As do ALL people! We don't need to lambaste another race, to uplift our own. We're already uplifted through our pride and strength. You white people seek strength in keeping other people down. You have a complex with equality. The problem lies with you. Fix you, then worry about what others are doing, 'kay? xD

I can't wait to hear from ya. ;)

Gee what a surprise. Like as if this is the first time. Surely they were treated no different than any others with similiar backgrounds. Cam'ron and Vado just need to be professional about it and work it out ethically. I don't know them from a hole in the wall, but historically their case is no where near the worse thats happened. Now lets see if they act like a-holes about it so they can be turned away in other countries. Thumbs up Canada, good ole' fashion discipline.

Way to go, Canada! Now, if the U.S. would buckle down and do the same, it would be a much better place for our young people. We don't need rappers with criminal pasts as role models.

Keep in mind that Driving While Intoxicated (DWI or DUI) will results in denied entry to Canada. It will take a few hundred dollars to get that taking care of which was a shock to my buddy who traveled with me. He had to wait 10 years to get that off the record plus extra hassels at the border. Your criminal records in the US has significant consequence elsewhere in the world even petty crimes.

Not that I blame the Canadians. Rap is not in any way shape or form considered music! These guys are ex-cons and I don't blame them keeping them out. I wish we could ship them out of here. But what I don't get is if they don't want these guys. Then why did they let an Egyptian that was convicted of hijacking the cruise ship Achille Laurelle and the killing of Leon Klinghoffer, an American tourist that was handicapped and in a wheelchair? That's right. I don't remember the guys name, but he now operates a grocery store either in Toronto or Montreal. I think maybe the Canadians have been smoking too many pine needles!
