No, but Pakistanis and other middle easterners are crossing the Canadian border.
Just this week, a Canadian border crossing ring was busted. They dealt mostly in smuggling people from the ME.
It's not just about illegal workers. It's about secure borders. It does us no good to screen flights when someone can pay $1k to sneak across the border from another country.
I don't believe it's the slightest bit racist. People that charge as much are just trying to take advantage of the emotion that comes with those accusations. It's no more racist than putting a speed limit in a black neighborhood... sure it mostly affects blacks, but that's a by product of the law, not the intent.
