which reduces the demand for labour in America

Many of the jobs that are being discussed are jobs that are in the United States and have little chance of being sent overseas. We can't export janitors, landscapers, nannies, or busboys to Bangladesh.

If I can move 5,000 miles without anybody claiming I'm "illegally" present in my new home town, then why should someone who only moved 500 miles be told that?

I can drive up to Montreal and overstay my permitted time there making my presence in Canada illegal, and the Canadians would have every right to send my ass back to the US and bar my entry to their country in the future. While travelling to Hawaii from New York means that you're still within the boundaries of the United States, the simple drive to a city 350 miles away requires crossing the frontiers into a different country that has a process for immigrating for those who seek to stay in the country permanently.

Coincidentally, Canadians can't just hop a fence and stay in America either. They have to apply for permanent status too.
