Chapter 7 - "Ask Me No Questions"

"Generation after generation the water and the land melt and blur; people move across borders that make no sense."

I really like this quote. I think it shows Nadira's real thought about borders and boundaries. What is the real meaning of a fence, or a line on a map? Even though Nadira does, it almost seems like she doesn't understand laws surrounding immigration and border crossins. She takes the subject of immigration lightly, I have noticed, and doesn't seem too worried about what would happen if Canada didn't let them apply for asylum, which is what happened.
